Use when a task needs the judgment of a Metal-Refining Furnace Operator — calculating an alloy addition that accounts for element-specific recovery rate rather than assuming 1:1 addition-to-result, recalculating additions from the current heat's actual assay rather than reusing a prior heat's amounts, adjusting slag basicity for the specific refining reaction required, or verifying actual tap temperature against the target rather than time-in-furnace.
