  judge verdicts (2)

  • groundedness 1.00 pass — The claim is directly stated in the passage. The text explicitly states 'Ten years later the average returns did not exceed twelve percent,' which directly supports the subject, predicate, and object of the claim regarding coffee estate returns in Brazil around 1910.
  • qualifier_fidelity 0.90 pass — All qualifiers are faithful to the passage. Viewpoint correctly attributes to 'author' (no named source in passage), stance appropriately 'asserts', sentiment correctly 'negative' (falling off profits). Time qualifier is accurate: 'when' is 'ten years later' with valid_from/to 1910 (ten years after 1900). Context 'Brazil' correctly reflects the passage's scope. Quote is verbatim and supports the claim. Minor note: the claim uses 'returned average yield' as predicate while the passage says 'average returns did not exceed' - this is semantically equivalent and acceptable. The score deducts only marginally (0.1) for slight predicate rewording that preserves fidelity.
