Feel means contribute honest observations from your experience. Measure means identify what was recorded, how it was obtained and what the limitations are. Challenge means question assumptions and seek constructive review. These are professional-development principles, not instructions to intensify an exercise. They do not justify reducing protective equipment, causing injury or ignoring a safety stop.
A strong partner can describe what they felt without pretending it was a calibrated reading. They can use a measurement without pretending it explains the whole canine. They can challenge an interpretation without making the discussion personal.
