Creating from: #3507 (comment). It's common for probes to look for the existence of dangerous/risky data points. When such things are found, should the outcome be positive or negative?

Should the probe be called repositoryIsArchived instead [of notArchived]?

Then we have the dilemma:

If we return OutcomePositive, we convey that it is positive that the project is archived.
If we return OutcomeNegative, the return value is negative, but we consider it positive, since it is positive that the repository is not archived.
