How to use it

When you study other creators, only count a video as proof if it got at least 5x that creator's normal views (or followers, for small accounts). Then check that the same hook or format broke out at least twice. One outlier can be luck; two is a pattern worth borrowing (the shape, never the words).

How sure we are

E Evidence: built from practice. What works for coaches and practitioners. Labelled that way.
