tegwick a9ca0adfcf feat(example): add per-entity LLM evaluations for 985 WoN entities (S3.3)
Batch evaluation of all 988 entities via OpenRouter. 984 succeeded on
first pass; 3 failed (network errors). eval-summary --update-metrics
written with per_entity_mean=3.9556.

name value max_value rationale
definition_precision 4.0 5.0 The definition clearly distinguishes merchantable herrings from other forms (like sea-sticks) by specifying the additional processing requirements of salting and packaging for commercial sale. It captures a distinct stage in the fish processing chain rather than being vague or circular.
name value max_value rationale
source_grounding 5.0 5.0 This entity is directly grounded in Smith's discussion in Book IV, Chapter 5, where he explicitly contrasts merchantable herrings with sea-sticks to illustrate how bounties distort pricing in the fishing industry. The concept emerges naturally from Smith's own analysis.
name value max_value rationale
domain_placement 5.0 5.0 The "Production" domain assignment is correct, as merchantable herrings represent a specific stage in the production process where raw fish are transformed into market-ready commodities. This fits perfectly within production economics rather than trade or consumption domains.
name value max_value rationale
vsm_relevance 3.0 5.0 This entity maps most naturally to S1 (primary operations) as a specific production output, but it's primarily a product category rather than a systemic function. While it has some VSM relevance through its role in production operations, it's more of a concrete output than a system component.
name value max_value rationale
explanatory_value 4.0 5.0 The entity provides genuine explanatory value by illustrating how government bounties can create artificial distinctions and pricing structures in commodity markets. It serves as a concrete example of how subsidies distort natural market mechanisms and pricing relationships.

Evaluation: Merchantable Herrings

definition_precision — 4.0 / 5.0

The definition clearly distinguishes merchantable herrings from other forms (like sea-sticks) by specifying the additional processing requirements of salting and packaging for commercial sale. It captures a distinct stage in the fish processing chain rather than being vague or circular.

source_grounding — 5.0 / 5.0

This entity is directly grounded in Smith's discussion in Book IV, Chapter 5, where he explicitly contrasts merchantable herrings with sea-sticks to illustrate how bounties distort pricing in the fishing industry. The concept emerges naturally from Smith's own analysis.

domain_placement — 5.0 / 5.0

The "Production" domain assignment is correct, as merchantable herrings represent a specific stage in the production process where raw fish are transformed into market-ready commodities. This fits perfectly within production economics rather than trade or consumption domains.

vsm_relevance — 3.0 / 5.0

This entity maps most naturally to S1 (primary operations) as a specific production output, but it's primarily a product category rather than a systemic function. While it has some VSM relevance through its role in production operations, it's more of a concrete output than a system component.

explanatory_value — 4.0 / 5.0

The entity provides genuine explanatory value by illustrating how government bounties can create artificial distinctions and pricing structures in commodity markets. It serves as a concrete example of how subsidies distort natural market mechanisms and pricing relationships.
