Most restaurant dashboards answer one question — what happened — and leave the harder one to the operator at the end of a fourteen-hour day. That is the wrong division of labour.
Every number should answer either "what happened?" or "what should I do next?"
An insight that stops at the observation is a report. An insight that carries its evidence, its recommendation, and the action in the same panel is a decision the operator can make in the time they actually have.
