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):
  definition_precision  3.62
  source_grounding      4.36
  domain_placement      4.56
  vsm_relevance         3.31

entity_slug: butcher_trade
evaluator: null
evaluated_at: '2026-02-23T04:39:31.512860'
overall_score: 4.0
scores:
- name: definition_precision
value: 4.0
max_value: 5.0
rationale: The definition is precise and captures a distinct concept - the specific
trade of slaughtering and selling meat with its characteristic of being disagreeable
yet profitable. It avoids circularity and clearly distinguishes this trade from
other commercial activities.
- name: source_grounding
value: 5.0
max_value: 5.0
rationale: This entity is directly grounded in Smith's text from Book I, Chapter
10, where he explicitly discusses the butcher trade as an example of disagreeable
employment that commands higher profits. The characterization as "brutal and odious"
reflects Smith's actual language and analysis.
- name: domain_placement
value: 4.0
max_value: 5.0
rationale: The "Distribution" domain placement is appropriate since this concerns
how profits are distributed across different trades based on their characteristics.
It could potentially fit in a labor/employment domain, but distribution captures
the profit allocation aspect Smith emphasizes.
- name: vsm_relevance
value: 3.0
max_value: 5.0
rationale: This entity maps most naturally to S1 (primary operations) as a specific
economic activity, but it also has S4 relevance in demonstrating how market intelligence
about trade desirability affects profit distribution. However, it's primarily
an example rather than a systemic mechanism.
- name: explanatory_value
value: 4.0
max_value: 5.0
rationale: This entity provides genuine explanatory power by illustrating Smith's
principle that disagreeable trades earn compensating differentials - a key mechanism
in how market forces distribute profits. It's not merely descriptive but demonstrates
an important structural economic relation.

# Evaluation: Butcher Trade
## definition_precision — 4.0 / 5.0
The definition is precise and captures a distinct concept - the specific trade of slaughtering and selling meat with its characteristic of being disagreeable yet profitable. It avoids circularity and clearly distinguishes this trade from other commercial activities.
## source_grounding — 5.0 / 5.0
This entity is directly grounded in Smith's text from Book I, Chapter 10, where he explicitly discusses the butcher trade as an example of disagreeable employment that commands higher profits. The characterization as "brutal and odious" reflects Smith's actual language and analysis.
## domain_placement — 4.0 / 5.0
The "Distribution" domain placement is appropriate since this concerns how profits are distributed across different trades based on their characteristics. It could potentially fit in a labor/employment domain, but distribution captures the profit allocation aspect Smith emphasizes.
## vsm_relevance — 3.0 / 5.0
This entity maps most naturally to S1 (primary operations) as a specific economic activity, but it also has S4 relevance in demonstrating how market intelligence about trade desirability affects profit distribution. However, it's primarily an example rather than a systemic mechanism.
## explanatory_value — 4.0 / 5.0
