Where it fits this work
The trial is where the decisions are made and the day is where they're executed. Everything that carries information reliably from the first to the second reduces the only risk that matters in this work: improvising under time pressure on a morning with no margin.
A record of the trial — products, quantities, order of application, the result photographed under a stated light — is what makes the day a repetition. Without it, the morning becomes a reconstruction from memory, weeks later.
Working on location sets the constraints: battery, speed, and the discipline of noting the conditions under which each image was taken, because images from different lights can't be compared.
Where it contributes
The chart is qualitative and shows the contribution of each function.
Trial and day
The table separates the two moments.
| Aspect | Trial | Day |
|---|---|---|
| What happens | Decisions | Execution |
| Use of the record | You write it | You consult it |
| Time | Sufficient | Minimal |
| Risk | Low | High if nothing was recorded |
