Template

Do not assert a causal direction without addressing whether the effect could run the other way. When two things are associated, the assumed cause may be the consequence — the sick may take a treatment rather than the treatment causing sickness. Do not present a directional claim that hasn't ruled out the arrow pointing the opposite way, or assumed time order without showing it.
