Tip #34

Document what you won’t do

Takeaways

  • Boundaries create trust.
  • List out-of-scope decisions
  • Share what’s deprecated and why
  • Say no, publicly

📏 A clear “no” is more inclusive than a fuzzy “maybe.”

Quick action:

Create a “Not in scope” section in your docs — even if it only has 3 bullets to start.
