Product links do not get to drive the copy.

Some articles mention hardware, tools, services, or shops. Sometimes those links may be commercial links. That does not make the product a recommendation, and it does not decide what gets covered.

How product links work

Product links may go through internal /go/ pages. That lets the site review or change a destination later without rewriting an article. It also keeps commercial links separate from ordinary source citations.

The site currently has no active affiliate links configured. Product links may still appear when they help identify a part, tool, or source used in the article.

Recommendation rule

A product should appear because it is part of the work: used in a build, measured, compared, cited, or needed for context. If the same sentence would not make sense without a commission, it should not be there.

What this does not mean

A shop link is not a verdict. Suite Despair does not publish paid rankings, invented tests, or broad "best" claims without evidence.
