Unmarked guesses in a mockup survive into official presentations. Label every value's origin so a deliverable stops lying about its certainty.
TL;DR: Mockups filled with unmarked guesses look authoritative, and one screenshot turns fabricated numbers into client expectations. Fix: label every value either "Source: catalog" for verbatim data or "PLACEHOLDER, question #9" for guesses, tied to a numbered open question. A guessed value is not data; without provenance markers, developers build validation on fiction that costs far more to rewrite.
