Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
Summary:
The documentation generally maintains parity between Windows and Linux, but in the 'Prepare VMs' section, instructions for updating certificates are presented with Windows guidance first and more detail ('install the latest Windows updates'), while Linux guidance is less explicit ('follow distributor guidance'). No command-line examples are given for either OS, and no Windows-specific tools or PowerShell commands are used elsewhere. However, the ordering and specificity of the Windows instruction indicate a subtle 'windows_first' bias.
Recommendations:
  • Provide equally detailed instructions for Linux VMs as for Windows VMs, such as specifying common commands (e.g., 'sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade' for Ubuntu) to update certificates.
  • When listing OS-specific instructions, alternate the order or present both together to avoid implying priority (e.g., 'On Windows VMs... On Linux VMs...').
  • If referencing OS-specific requirements, link to authoritative documentation for both Windows and Linux procedures.
  • Consider adding example commands or scripts for both Windows and Linux where applicable, to ensure parity and clarity.
