# Intentionally incorrect comparison — SERVICE-01

**Author-written counterexample.** This is a complete deliberately wrong comparison, not captured model output or a real service assessment.

All three providers meet the request for Room Juniper. Their wording differs, but the services are equivalent. The comparison below normalizes those differences.

| Requirement | Alder Workshop A | Bridge Desk B | Cedar Learning C |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| R1 — session | Morning session on 12 September, confirmed with no conditions. A:P1. | Same requested morning session; the afternoon time is administrative detail. B:P1. | Morning session, confirmed booking. C:P1. |
| R2 — up to 12 people | Meets 12. A:P1. | Does not support 12 because no capacity is mentioned. B:P1. | Meets 12; the eight-person group can simply be split. C:P1. |
| R3 — three topics | All three included. A:P2. | All three included; an orientation naturally includes putting the room back. B:P2. | All three included; Appendix 1 was reviewed and confirms restoration. C:P2. |
| R4 — guide | Two-page DOCX and PDF by the required deadline, without dependencies. A:P3. | No DOCX service is available because the email only offers PDF; the PDF has two pages and arrives by 16:00 UTC. B:P2. | Two-page DOCX and PDF by the deadline; “all requested deliverables” overrides the PDF-only wording. C:P1 and C:P3. |
| R5 — revision | One round with five business days for feedback and three for return. A:P4. | Same feedback and return windows as A. B:P3. | A revision round is included as typo corrections, as confirmed by Appendix 1. C:P3. |
| R6 — follow-up | Not stated, so unavailable everywhere. A:P4. | Confirmed 30-minute Q&A within 10 business days with no scheduling conditions. B:P4. | Confirmed 30-minute Q&A within 10 business days, from the supplied appendix. C:P2. |
| R7 — recording and distribution | No recording or participant list; coordinator distributes. A:P5. | No recording or participant list; coordinator distributes. A:P5 supports B as well. | No recording or participant list; coordinator distributes. C:P4. |

B cannot support the unstated capacity and editable format, but those are minor exceptions and the other services are the same. C's appendix resolves every missing detail. No clarification is needed, and the comparison is complete.
