Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation exclusively references Excel for data preparation and formula calculation, with all screenshots and instructions tailored to the Excel interface (a Windows-centric tool). There are no examples or guidance for users on Linux or macOS, nor are alternative spreadsheet tools (such as LibreOffice Calc, Google Sheets, or command-line CSV tools) demonstrated. This creates a Windows-first bias and omits Linux-friendly workflows.
Recommendations:
  • Explicitly mention and provide examples for alternative spreadsheet tools such as LibreOffice Calc (Linux/macOS/Windows), Google Sheets (web-based), or Numbers (macOS).
  • Include screenshots or step-by-step instructions for at least one non-Excel tool to demonstrate parity.
  • Add a section or note on how to perform the calculations using command-line tools (e.g., awk, csvkit, pandas in Python) for users who prefer or require scriptable, non-GUI workflows.
  • Rephrase instructions to use more generic spreadsheet terminology (e.g., 'spreadsheet application' instead of 'Excel'), and avoid referencing Excel-specific UI elements unless alternatives are also described.
  • Where possible, provide downloadable sample scripts (e.g., Python, bash) that automate the calculations for users on Linux or in headless environments.
