Check That No Stand-In Did a User’s Step

Use this when you want to check that a piece of product work went through the whole loop without a stand-in doing a user’s step. Worked in “A Fast Loop Only Works if Real Users Stay in It.”

The Shortest Truthful Distance loop check for one piece of work.

User, real-user validation, and production measurement can’t be done without real users. If any of those three rows names only internal staff, the work isn’t finished; it’s waiting at that step.
