ps_symbol_add_alternative
Add alternative explanations to pattern-based findings to prevent false positives by documenting multiple possible interpretations and adjusting confidence levels.
Instructions
Add an alternative explanation to a symbol's findings.
CRITICAL for preventing false positives: When a pattern-based finding could have multiple explanations, document them here. Adding high-likelihood alternatives automatically reduces confidence in the original claim.
Examples:
"9 identical payments" → Alternative: "Monthly insurance premium financing"
"Large round numbers" → Alternative: "Negotiated contract amounts"
"Vendor with single customer" → Alternative: "Subsidiary company"
