These long-form reports are part of our total system of reporting, another important niche in which is filled by our one-page “cards” that communicate in bite-sized chunks. (An important “explainability” method in data science originally inspired by documentation methods in medical and nutrition research, “cards” give essential information, examples, and evidence summaries. (See our Methods card M-1 on “cards.”)
