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.

Evaluation: Economic Geography Determinism

definition_precision — 4.0 / 5.0

The definition clearly distinguishes between geographical features determining economic patterns versus merely influencing them, and specifies the mechanisms (market extent, division of labour). The concept is well-bounded and avoids circularity.

source_grounding — 5.0 / 5.0

This directly reflects Smith's explicit argument in Book I, Chapter 3 about how water-carriage determines the initial location of industry and the sequence of economic development from coastal to inland areas. The deterministic framing accurately captures Smith's strong causal claims.

domain_placement — 5.0 / 5.0

"General Theory" is the correct domain placement as this represents a fundamental theoretical principle about how geography shapes economic development patterns, rather than a specific mechanism or policy application.

vsm_relevance — 4.0 / 5.0

This maps well to S4 (intelligence/environmental adaptation) as it concerns how economic systems must adapt to and work within geographical constraints and opportunities. It represents a key environmental factor that shapes system viability.

explanatory_value — 4.0 / 5.0

This provides genuine explanatory power by identifying geography as a structural determinant of economic possibilities, helping explain why certain development patterns emerge and why market extent varies systematically across locations.
