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.

entity_slug: cheap_years
evaluator: null
evaluated_at: '2026-02-23T04:42:38.976129'
overall_score: 4.2
scores:
- name: definition_precision
value: 4.0
max_value: 5.0
rationale: The definition clearly identifies cheap years as periods of agricultural
abundance with low prices and specifies their dual effects on labor composition
(more independent workmen vs. journeymen/servants) and employment levels. The
concept is distinct and non-circular, though it could be slightly more precise
about the causal mechanisms.
- name: source_grounding
value: 5.0
max_value: 5.0
rationale: This entity is well-grounded in Smith's actual analysis from Book I,
Chapter 8, where he examines how periods of abundance affect wages, employment
patterns, and the balance between different types of workers. The effects described
align directly with Smith's observations about agricultural cycles and labor markets.
- name: domain_placement
value: 5.0
max_value: 5.0
rationale: The placement in "General Theory" is appropriate as this concept relates
to fundamental economic mechanisms governing labor markets, wages, and employment
patterns across the economy. It represents a structural economic phenomenon rather
than a narrow sectoral issue.
- name: vsm_relevance
value: 3.0
max_value: 5.0
rationale: This entity has moderate VSM relevance, primarily relating to S4 (intelligence/environmental
adaptation) as it describes how economic systems respond to environmental changes
in agricultural productivity. However, it's more of a cyclical phenomenon than
a clear systemic function.
- name: explanatory_value
value: 4.0
max_value: 5.0
rationale: The entity provides genuine explanatory value by illuminating how agricultural
abundance creates specific labor market dynamics and employment patterns. It reveals
an important structural mechanism connecting agricultural cycles to broader economic
organization and worker independence.

# Evaluation: Cheap Years
## definition_precision — 4.0 / 5.0
The definition clearly identifies cheap years as periods of agricultural abundance with low prices and specifies their dual effects on labor composition (more independent workmen vs. journeymen/servants) and employment levels.
