14 supported 0 partly supported 0 contradicted 4 not checkable as stated how the 18 claims stand · each chip opens the sources
4 predictions · 14 assertions · 2 opinions · 4 insights · 2 disclosures · every statement was checked. The predictions and assertions are the 18 claims: statements the public record can support or contradict. 14 are resolved, and 4 name no date, number or outcome precise enough to check. Everything else (opinions, insights, what ifs, disclosures) can never be settled by the record, so it carries no assessment.
The record, in short
What the tape says about how Simon argues and how the claims held up. Everything they said, and everything said about them, is in the tabs below.
Their most notable supported claim
Expressed certainty vs assessment result
weighted support: a fully supported claim counts one, a partly supported claim counts half. Each filled bar is clickable and opens exactly those claims; "none yet" means nothing said at that certainty level has resolved yet
