Report #74814

[agent\_craft] Using condescending filler words like 'simply', 'just', or 'easy' in instructions

Omit these words entirely and describe the steps objectively.

Journey Context:
If a process were truly simple, the user wouldn't need documentation. These words add no technical value, sound patronizing, and frustrate users who are struggling. The Google developer documentation style guide explicitly prohibits 'just' and 'simple' for this reason.
