Evidence level

This number carries no source signal, so we treat it as an unverified assumption.

  • Observed Cited to a source-confirmed figure in your books.
  • Explained Derived, but every input traces back to observed data.
  • Inferred A reasoned default — defensible, but not measured.
  • Hypothesis A raw assumption that still needs verification.
