Report #27648

[agent\_craft] Introducing a concept by leading with exceptions, caveats, or edge cases

State the primary rule or most common case first. Add exceptions and caveats afterward, typically in a 'Note' or 'Exceptions' section.

Journey Context:
Agents often aggregate all information equally, leading to front-loaded caveats. Humans need to understand the 80% case before the 20% exceptions make sense. This aligns with progressive disclosure and plain language principles.
