Colour coding based on value would be my vote. I’ve seen similar discussed on other topics of conditional such as in this one I think [Setting field/UI properties based on conditions](https://community.fibery.io/t/setting-field-ui-properties-based-on-conditions/5226)

For example, a Board View can colour an entire card based on a value. However, there is no context for _why._ If only the field would display the colour, then it is very clear the context for drawing your attention to the value.

Example, why are the first few cards displaying red?

In this situation its better the display only the field in red so I know what is the problem
