The rule

A developer must use specific language to describe a user's problem.

This helps the user feel understood. Clear problem statements build trust with the user.

A developer should use words that describe the user's exact feelings. This makes the user feel heard. The problem statement must show understanding without judgment. It must name the user's core conflict. This helps the user feel validated in their struggle. A good problem statement uses metaphors. These metaphors capture the user's specific feelings. This helps the user see their experience reflected. The problem statement can describe physical sensations. It connects these sensations to a specific trigger. This validates the user's physical and emotional response.

A developer creates an AI for teens. The AI asks, 'Do you feel like a project your family tries to fix?' A teen user feels understood. The user continues to engage with the AI. If the AI asked, 'Are you having family problems?' the user might not feel understood. The user might stop using the AI.
