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 captures the essential features of joint-stock companies - multiple shareholders contributing capital and sharing profits/losses, often with government privileges. It's precise and non-circular, though could be slightly more specific about the transferability of shares that distinguishes joint-stock from other partnership forms.
name value max_value rationale
source_grounding 5.0 5.0 This entity is directly grounded in Smith's text, specifically his analysis in Book IV, Chapter 5 of the white herring fishery joint-stock company as an example of inefficient capital allocation due to government bounties. Smith extensively discusses joint-stock companies throughout the work as concrete organizational forms.
name value max_value rationale
domain_placement 4.0 5.0 "General Theory" is appropriate as joint-stock companies represent a fundamental organizational structure that Smith analyzes across multiple contexts - from trade monopolies to public works. However, it could arguably fit in a more specific domain like "Business Organization" or "Market Structure" if those existed.
name value max_value rationale
vsm_relevance 3.0 5.0 Joint-stock companies have moderate VSM relevance as organizational structures that must coordinate shareholders (S2), regulate internal operations (S3), and adapt to market conditions (S4). However, as a structural form rather than a functional process, the VSM mapping is not as natural as it would be for operational mechanisms.
name value max_value rationale
explanatory_value 5.0 5.0 This entity provides excellent explanatory value by illuminating Smith's key mechanism about how organizational forms interact with government privileges to create inefficient capital allocation. It's not merely naming a phenomenon but explaining a structural relationship central to Smith's critique of mercantilism.
