How to be a pollinatoR
summary
Three practical rules: do no harm — preserve Stata's three missing types (GSS example: 50‑year study where 316 “don't know” and 100 “not asked” cases would collapse to NA unless haven/foreign semantics are handled); make things that just work — write out SAS import scripts with foreign, pin package versions with renv so dashboards run on server and local; promote growth — add svDialogs or a Shiny front end and deliver R Markdown outputs so newcomers learn without breaking production.
