合理性检查; 看其是否说得过去

Explanation:
未见更多上下文，感觉应该如此。更常见的是所谓的common sense checks。

"Sensibility Check"与其意思可能相同，也可能不同，得看上下文，但更可能是一种直觉性的合理性检查，主要看脑子是否敏感，别人说天下掉钱了，有的人可能会信，有的人凭直觉就不信，这也算是潜意识里的一种敏感性检查吧。

即使上下文不那么有用，整个文件的性质对选词还是会有所有帮助。建议“sensibility check”译为“敏感性检查”，即内心深处一种直观的感觉（需要专业素养的积累所养成的一种潜意识感觉），而“sense checks”则译为“合理性检查”，有更理性一点的内容在里面，需要一定的分析判断。
