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 trade capital from other forms of capital by its function in exchange and distribution, and specifies its role in connecting surplus with demand. It avoids circularity and captures a distinct economic concept, though it could be slightly more precise about what constitutes "capital employed" in this context.
name value max_value rationale
source_grounding 5.0 5.0 This entity is directly grounded in Smith's analysis in Book II, Chapter 5, where he explicitly discusses trade capital and its subdivisions (home trade, foreign trade, carrying trade). The characterization of trade capital as "least productive" in terms of productive labour is faithful to Smith's actual argument.
name value max_value rationale
domain_placement 5.0 5.0 The "Exchange" domain is perfectly appropriate for trade capital, as this concept is fundamentally about the mechanisms and processes of exchanging goods between producers and consumers. This is clearly distinct from production, consumption, or other economic domains.
name value max_value rationale
vsm_relevance 3.0 5.0 Trade capital has some VSM relevance as it relates to coordination (S2) by connecting different parts of the economy, and potentially to intelligence (S4) through market information flows. However, it doesn't map cleanly to any single VSM system and remains somewhat abstract relative to operational cybernetic functions.
name value max_value rationale
explanatory_value 4.0 5.0 This entity provides genuine explanatory power by illuminating how capital allocation affects economic structure and the division of labor between production and distribution. It reveals the mechanism by which specialization is enabled through market intermediation, though it primarily describes a structural category rather than a dynamic process.

Evaluation: Trade Capital

definition_precision — 4.0 / 5.0

The definition clearly distinguishes trade capital from other forms of capital by its function in exchange and distribution, and specifies its role in connecting surplus with demand. It avoids circularity and captures a distinct economic concept, though it could be slightly more precise about what constitutes "capital employed" in this context.

source_grounding — 5.0 / 5.0

This entity is directly grounded in Smith's analysis in Book II, Chapter 5, where he explicitly discusses trade capital and its subdivisions (home trade, foreign trade, carrying trade). The characterization of trade capital as "least productive" in terms of productive labour is faithful to Smith's actual argument.

domain_placement — 5.0 / 5.0

The "Exchange" domain is perfectly appropriate for trade capital, as this concept is fundamentally about the mechanisms and processes of exchanging goods between producers and consumers. This is clearly distinct from production, consumption, or other economic domains.

vsm_relevance — 3.0 / 5.0

Trade capital has some VSM relevance as it relates to coordination (S2) by connecting different parts of the economy, and potentially to intelligence (S4) through market information flows. However, it doesn't map cleanly to any single VSM system and remains somewhat abstract relative to operational cybernetic functions.

explanatory_value — 4.0 / 5.0
