The rule was in my head and in a commit message; it needed to be in the task.
The first run detached sixteen good figures — a tick on a leaf against a July
fever, fungal hyphae against a scaly rash, a recessed chin in a two-week-old's
notes, an ECG on a tachypnoeic neonate — because a judgement about relevance was
allowed to act on a photograph, and the connection between a clinical figure and
its question is often indirect.
Two changes. The prompt now separates the two kinds of figure and says how each
is judged: a clinical one — photograph, radiograph, ultrasound, ECG, fundoscopy,
otoscopy, microscopy — is refused only when it is anatomically impossible, and a
table, citation, chart or nomogram is refused whenever it is about another
subject. And the model must now say which kind it is looking at, so the code can
enforce it: "no" on anything clinical becomes "unsure", which flags it for a
person instead of detaching it.
