Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Windows-specific limitations (such as maximum path length), linking to Windows documentation, and suggesting the use of Windows Device Manager for troubleshooting. There are no equivalent instructions or references for Linux or macOS users, and no examples or troubleshooting steps tailored to non-Windows environments.
Recommendations:
  • For path length issues, mention that this is a Windows-specific problem and clarify that Linux/macOS users are not affected. Optionally, provide guidance for long path handling on those platforms if relevant.
  • When suggesting the use of Windows Device Manager to identify COM ports, also provide instructions for Linux (e.g., using `dmesg`, `ls /dev/tty*`, or `lsusb`) and macOS (e.g., `ls /dev/tty.*`).
  • Wherever Windows-specific tools or settings are mentioned, add parallel instructions for Linux and macOS users.
  • Include examples and troubleshooting steps that are platform-agnostic or explicitly cover all major operating systems.
  • Review all links and references to ensure that they are not exclusively Windows-focused, or provide equivalent references for other platforms.
