Apply the 5 Whys technique to drill from a surface problem to a root cause. Outputs five sequentially numbered "Why?" lines with brief answers, ending in a root-cause statement. Use after an issue tree to drill the critical branch deeper, or any time the user wants to test whether the apparent cause is the actual cause.
