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
  redundancy_ratio   0.0061  (max 0.10)
  coverage_ratio     0.6190  (min 0.40)
  coherence_comps    0.0000  (max 3)
  consistency_cycles 0.0000  (max 0)
  granularity_entropy 2.6748 (min 1.0)
  per_entity_mean    3.9556  (min 3.5)

Dimension breakdown (mean across 985 entities):

source_grounding 3.0 5.0 While Smith does discuss how nations restrict trade with rivals and favor allies in Book IV, Chapter 6, the specific framing as a "commercial jealousy mechanism" appears to be an interpretive overlay rather than Smith's own conceptualization. The underlying phenomena are present but the mechanistic framing is imposed.

domain_placement 4.0 5.0 The "Regulation" domain is appropriate since this describes how nations regulate trade relationships based on political considerations. This fits well within Smith's broader critique of regulatory interventions in commerce.
name value max_value rationale
vsm_relevance 4.0 5.0 This maps well to S4 (intelligence/environmental adaptation) as it describes how nations respond to perceived threats from rivals, and potentially S5 (identity/policy) as it involves national identity and strategic policy decisions. The mechanism has clear VSM relevance.

explanatory_value 2.0 5.0 While it identifies a real pattern in mercantilist policy, it doesn't illuminate the underlying structural mechanisms that drive this behavior beyond restating that nations act on jealousy and self-interest. It names the phenomenon without explaining why it persists or how it operates systematically.

Evaluation: Commercial Jealousy Mechanism

definition_precision — 1.0 / 5.0

There is no definition provided, only context. The context describes a broad phenomenon but lacks the precision needed to distinguish this as a specific mechanism versus general mercantilist behavior.

source_grounding — 3.0 / 5.0

While Smith does discuss how nations restrict trade with rivals and favor allies in Book IV, Chapter 6, the specific framing as a "commercial jealousy mechanism" appears to be an interpretive overlay rather than Smith's own conceptualization. The underlying phenomena are present but the mechanistic framing is imposed.

domain_placement — 4.0 / 5.0

The "Regulation" domain is appropriate since this describes how nations regulate trade relationships based on political considerations. This fits well within Smith's broader critique of regulatory interventions in commerce.

vsm_relevance — 4.0 / 5.0

This maps well to S4 (intelligence/environmental adaptation) as it describes how nations respond to perceived threats from rivals, and potentially S5 (identity/policy) as it involves national identity and strategic policy decisions. The mechanism has clear VSM relevance.

explanatory_value — 2.0 / 5.0

While it identifies a real pattern in mercantilist policy, it doesn't illuminate the underlying structural mechanisms that drive this behavior beyond restating that nations act on jealousy and self-interest. It names the phenomenon without explaining why it persists or how it operates systematically.
