- In short
- Ordering steps for checkable intermediate results means sequencing a decomposed task so each step produces a result that can be verified before the next step builds on it. Catching an error at an early intermediate step is cheaper than catching it after the final output, and surfacing each step also makes the reasoning behind a final recommendation auditable. Running all the steps in one uninterrupted pass without checking defeats the purpose of decomposing.
