Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation provides only a Windows/Powershell-based example for testing DNS resolution (using nslookup with a C:\> prompt), with no Linux or cross-platform command-line examples. The command-line prompt and syntax are Windows-specific, and there is no mention of how to perform the same operation on Linux or macOS. This may lead Linux users to feel unsupported or unclear about how to verify reverse DNS functionality.
Recommendations:
  • Include Linux and macOS examples for testing DNS resolution, such as showing the nslookup or dig command with a $ prompt.
  • Present both Windows and Linux/macOS command-line examples side by side, or use a neutral prompt (e.g., 'nslookup 10.1.2.5') without platform-specific context.
  • Explicitly mention that the steps for verifying DNS resolution can be performed on any OS, and provide sample outputs for both Windows and Linux.
  • If using screenshots or code blocks, alternate between Windows and Linux environments, or provide both to ensure parity.
