- qualifier_fidelity 1.00 pass — All qualifiers are faithful to the passage. The viewpoint is correctly attributed to the author (presenting historical information). The stance is 'asserts' which matches the passage's factual presentation. The sentiment is neutral, appropriate for the objective historical description. The time period 'Between 1500 and 1600' with valid_from and valid_to dates match exactly. The context 'Bagdad and Mesopotamia' is faithful to the passage's specification of locations.
