scores:
- name: definition_precision
  value: 1.0
  max_value: 5.0
  rationale: There is no definition provided at all, making this entity completely
    imprecise. Without any definitional content, it's impossible to assess whether
    the concept captures something distinct or is merely a vague umbrella term.
- name: source_grounding
  value: 2.0
  max_value: 5.0
  rationale: While "annual consumption of goods" uses terminology that would appear
    in The Wealth of Nations, the lack of source chapter specification and definition
    suggests this may not be grounded in Smith's actual conceptual framework. The
    entity appears to be a modern economic term imposed on the text rather than derived
    from it.
- name: domain_placement
  value: 3.0
  max_value: 5.0
  rationale: The concept of annual consumption would logically fit within economic
    domains related to demand, markets, or national accounting. However, without domain
    specification or definition, it's unclear whether this placement aligns with Smith's
    actual treatment of consumption patterns.
- name: vsm_relevance
  value: 2.0
  max_value: 5.0
  rationale: Annual consumption could potentially relate to S1 (operational flows)
    or S4 (environmental intelligence about demand patterns), but without proper definition
    it remains too abstract to meaningfully map to VSM systems. The entity lacks the
    structural specificity needed for VSM integration.
- name: explanatory_value
  value: 1.0
  max_value: 5.0
  rationale: With no definition, context, or source grounding, this entity provides
    zero explanatory value. It merely names a surface-level economic phenomenon without
    illuminating any mechanisms, relationships, or structural insights from Smith's
    work.
