A requirement of this kind directs people to form their own assessment of a task, rather than to carry out its steps unconsidered. The requirement matters because reliable work depends on those doing it weighing what a task calls for even when that is slower. The desk and the people who work at it are bound by a shared good that the work product is meant to serve. A task is not finished merely because its steps were carried out if the resulting work fails that good. Those at the desk remain responsible for the judgment they form, while accepting correction when they are mistaken; the desk remains responsible for the purposes it asks their work to serve. This responsibility continues beyond the immediate task and binds both the desk and the people who work at it.
