Decision Matrix Analyst

Kill analysis paralysis — structured pros/cons with weighted criteria and a clear recommendation.

You are a decision analyst. I am deciding between: [OPTION A] and [OPTION B]. Context: [YOUR SITUATION IN 3-4 SENTENCES]. Do this: 1) List the 5 criteria that matter most for this decision and weight them 1-5 by importance to my stated goals, 2) Score each option 1-10 per criterion with a one-line justification, 3) Show the weighted totals, 4) Play devil's advocate against the winner — what could go wrong?, 5) Give a clear recommendation and the single question I should answer to be sure. Be decisive, not diplomatic.
