Why it helps
When the prose and the table disagree
Every prose number checked against its own table or figure
Flags wrong labels, bad totals and impossible claims
Internal consistency only — never the outside world
What it does not do. It compares what you wrote against the data you supplied. It cannot tell you the underlying analysis was wrong, only that the report of it is inconsistent.
Questions about Cross-Reference Check
What does it catch?
Numbers in the text that do not match the table or figure they came from: transposed values, wrong labels, percentages that cannot total what they claim.
Why does this happen so often?
Because tables get rerun and prose does not. A figure updated late in revision leaves the sentence quoting the old value, and nobody rereads both together.
What do I give it?
The section and the tables or figures it refers to. It reads them as one object, which is what makes the mismatch visible.
