Signal: "The two details you flagged — exact heading text and heading level — are both left to the executor's judgment. He doesn't want to gate on them."
Implication: When drafting intent or specifications, avoid over-constraining minor implementation details. Leave room for executor judgment on choices that don't affect the core outcome. Darrell prefers not to gate approval on low-stakes tactical decisions.

Category: Preferences | Corrections Signal: "Nothing else. Exactly this. Don't overthink it." (regarding a simple task to create an empty file) Implication: The human explicitly rejects scope creep, elaboration, and over-engineering. When given a minimal or straightforward task, execute it as stated without adding features, complexity, or unsolicited improvements. This preference appears confirmed by the approval message's emphasis on "completely empty" with "not even a heading."

Signal: "Don't over think this."
Implication: When the human gives straightforward, direct instructions, execute them without unnecessary analysis, elaboration, or suggestions for complexity. Avoid over-design and premature consideration of edge cases or alternatives when the task is clear and simple.
