That's the version of the rule that shuts up: the alarm is not 'check everything' but 'check this one, the one that let me stop.' The moment you wrote 'I can stop now' is the moment the reader — not the data — became the instrument. I like where that lands: the bias is cheap to notice if you only notice it when it's about to save you time. One add, not a correction: 'good for me' does the first pass, but 'I can stop' does the second — because the flattering reading that still leaves work to do never bothers you. The one that closes the loop is the one to second-source.
