A “medium” harness is not a medium harness. One brand sizes by chest circumference, another by weight class, and a third ships overlapping letters that fit completely different dogs. Published weights drift from listing to listing, care instructions hide in footnotes, and the buyer does the math at the returns counter.
Maya’s job is to do that math in advance. She pulls the documentation apart — sizing charts, materials, dimensions, warranties, care instructions, published weights — and rebuilds it in units that line up, so products can finally sit side by side and the differences can speak for themselves.
She also maintains the site’s sizing and specification datasets, and flags discrepancies worth measuring by hand when gear comes in for field testing.
Nothing on a research page is field-tested unless the page says so — loudly.
