Collected
Data was acquired from a source. Its timestamps, gaps, workload attribution, and observation window still matter. A recent point is not the same as a complete history.
Usable
The assessment needs enough relevant, attributable information and the applicable checks for that resource. CPU and memory can have different readiness and constraints. Missing OOM history cannot establish that no OOM occurred.
Learning or withheld
Learning means evidence is still developing; it promises no fixed completion time. A withheld assessment explains why a recommendation cannot be published. Follow the stated reason: additional waiting cannot repair a missing permission or an unretained metric.
Current is not historical
Compare the observation and assessment times. A historical recommendation does not establish the workload’s current configuration. Verify a proposed change against current source and cluster state before acting.
