Bias Analysis
Bias Types:

windows_tools
⚠️
missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation shows evidence of Windows bias, particularly in the 'Copy data' section where Windows/SMB and the Windows tool Robocopy are mentioned first and in detail, while Linux/NFS is only briefly referenced with generic commands (cp/rsync) and less guidance. There are no Linux-specific examples for connecting to SMB shares, and the documentation generally assumes familiarity with Windows tools and patterns.
Recommendations:
- Provide Linux-specific examples for copying data to SMB shares, such as using smbclient, mount.cifs, or rsync with SMB.
- List Linux/NFS options before or alongside Windows/SMB options to avoid 'windows_first' ordering.
- Include explicit command-line examples for Linux users, such as mounting SMB shares or using rsync over SMB.
- Mention common Linux file copy tools (e.g., scp, rsync, cp) with example commands for both NFS and SMB scenarios.
- Clarify any differences in authentication or share access between Windows and Linux hosts.
- Ensure parity in troubleshooting steps and guidance for both Windows and Linux environments.
