contents In this paper, we present a concrete example that highlights how predictions in non-Hermitian quantum mechanics can be inaccurately influenced by the absence of environment-induced fluctuations in the model. Specifically, we investigate the non-Hermitian skin effect and sensor in the Hatano-Nelson model, contrasting it with a more precise Lindblad description. Our analysis reveals that these phenomena can undergo breakdown when environmental fluctuations come to the forefront, resulting in a non-equilibrium phase transition from a localized skin phase to a delocalized phase. Beyond this specific case study, we engage in a broader discussion regarding the interpretations and implications of non-Hermitian quantum mechanics. This examination serves to broaden our understanding of these phenomena and their potential consequences.
