New recommendation explanations 

• We’ve introduced a new recommendation explanation feature. After a user has answered two questions, we start adding inline context to each recommendation to help highlight how the recommendations match or diverge from their preferences and compare to one another.

The old field

• As the user answers more questions, we add more inline explanations. 

• The explanations highlight both ways a recommendation is a good fit and also ways a recommendation may not exactly meet a user’s preferences. 

• Inline explanations will also highlight which recommendation has the best of a specific attribute of all three recs: for example, "best camera" or "lowest cost." We will also highlight if a recommendation doesn't meet a user's specific needs, but is still the best option available given their other preferences.
