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.

Viability dashboard: 6/6 PASS

name value max_value rationale
definition_precision 4.0 5.0 The definition clearly articulates a specific concept - the natural progression of economic development from agriculture through manufacturing to foreign trade when unimpeded by institutional interference. While comprehensive, it could be slightly more concise, but it successfully avoids circularity and captures a distinct theoretical construct.
name value max_value rationale
source_grounding 5.0 5.0 This entity is directly grounded in Smith's text from Book III, Chapter 1, where he explicitly discusses the "natural course of things" and contrasts it with actual historical development patterns. The definition accurately reflects Smith's argument about the logical sequence of economic development and the role of security preferences.
name value max_value rationale
domain_placement 5.0 5.0 "General Theory" is the appropriate domain placement as this concept represents a foundational theoretical framework that underpins Smith's broader analysis of economic development. It's not specific to any particular economic sector but rather describes the overarching pattern of how economies naturally evolve.
name value max_value rationale
vsm_relevance 3.0 5.0 This entity has moderate VSM relevance, potentially mapping to S4 (intelligence/environmental adaptation) as it describes how economic systems naturally adapt and evolve in response to environmental conditions. However, it's somewhat abstract and could also be viewed as a meta-principle that operates across multiple VSM systems.
name value max_value rationale
explanatory_value 5.0 5.0 This entity provides significant explanatory power by establishing a theoretical benchmark against which actual economic development can be measured and understood. It illuminates the underlying mechanisms driving economic evolution and helps explain why certain development patterns are distorted or suboptimal.

Evaluation: Natural Course Of Things

definition_precision — 4.0 / 5.0

The definition clearly articulates a specific concept - the natural progression of economic development from agriculture through manufacturing to foreign trade when unimpeded by institutional interference. While comprehensive, it could be slightly more concise, but it successfully avoids circularity and captures a distinct theoretical construct.

source_grounding — 5.0 / 5.0

This entity is directly grounded in Smith's text from Book III, Chapter 1, where he explicitly discusses the "natural course of things" and contrasts it with actual historical development patterns. The definition accurately reflects Smith's argument about the logical sequence of economic development and the role of security preferences.

domain_placement — 5.0 / 5.0

"General Theory" is the appropriate domain placement as this concept represents a foundational theoretical framework that underpins Smith's broader analysis of economic development. It's not specific to any particular economic sector but rather describes the overarching pattern of how economies naturally evolve.

vsm_relevance — 3.0 / 5.0

This entity has moderate VSM relevance, potentially mapping to S4 (intelligence/environmental adaptation) as it describes how economic systems naturally adapt and evolve in response to environmental conditions. However, it's somewhat abstract and could also be viewed as a meta-principle that operates across multiple VSM systems.

explanatory_value — 5.0 / 5.0

This entity provides significant explanatory power by establishing a theoretical benchmark against which actual economic development can be measured and understood. It illuminates the underlying mechanisms driving economic evolution and helps explain why certain development patterns are distorted or suboptimal.
