| Property | Value |

| Kind | Hard rule |
| Engine | `phrase` |
| Tier | `static` |
| Severity | `warning` |
| Intent | `style` |
| Scope | `text` |

:::note
This is a style rule. It reports findings and participates in `--fix`, but never moves the [human-likeness score](/docs/concepts/scoring).
:::

## Why

Remove intensifiers that add emphasis without adding evidence.

## Examples

<Columns cols={2}>
  <Column>
    **Flagged**

    The result is genuinely important.
  </Column>
  <Column>
    **Better**

    The result is important.
  </Column>
</Columns>

## Turning it off

```sh
lawlint --disable no-filler-intensifiers draft.md
```

Or durably, in `.lawlint/config.json` — see [Configuration](/docs/reference/configuration).
