- No segments. Treating Knowledge Graph as one number for all. Break it out before you trust it.
- Bare numbers. Showing Knowledge Graph on its own. Context is what makes it readable.
- Vanity focus. Gaming Knowledge Graph instead of the result. Tie it to business value.
- Raw benchmarks. Stacking Knowledge Graph against rivals blind. Normalize for margin, pricing, and sales cycle.
