Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation generally maintains OS neutrality, but there is a subtle Windows-first bias: when mentioning credentials for Mobility Service installation, Windows is listed before Linux, and only minimal Linux-specific guidance is provided (e.g., 'provide root credentials'). No explicit Linux command-line examples or troubleshooting steps are given, and there are no references to Linux-specific tools or patterns. The documentation does not provide parity in example depth or troubleshooting for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit Linux command-line examples for manual Mobility Service installation, including common package managers and service management commands.
  • Include troubleshooting steps or links for common Linux-specific issues (e.g., SELinux, firewall configuration, systemd service status).
  • Mention Linux patterns/tools (such as SSH, sudo, systemctl) where relevant, and ensure Linux instructions are as detailed as Windows ones.
  • List Linux instructions before or alongside Windows instructions to avoid Windows-first ordering.
  • Clarify any differences in agent behavior or requirements between Linux and Windows VMs.
