6 assertions · 2 insights · every statement was checked. The predictions and assertions are the 6 claims: statements the public record can support or contradict. 6 are resolved. Everything else (opinions, insights, what ifs, disclosures) can never be settled by the record, so it carries no assessment.

How they sound: not measured why? →
