Zennism, like Taoism, is a strong advocate of individualism
judge verdicts (2)

Zennism made them practical
judge verdicts (2)
- groundedness 1.00 pass — The claim is directly stated in the final sentence of the passage: 'Taoism furnished the basis for aesthetic ideals, Zennism made them practical.' This is an exact match to the quoted text and requires no additional interpretation.
- qualifier_fidelity 0.90 pass — The claim is faithful to the passage with only a minor issue. The quote 'Zennism made them practical' appears verbatim and accurately reflects the passage's assertion. The viewpoint, stance, sentiment, and time qualifiers are all appropriate. However, the context field is empty when it should note that this concerns 'aesthetic ideals' (from Taoism) - though this is a very minor contextual gap since the claim's object ('practical') does reference what was made practical. Overall, the claim faithfully captures the passage's statement about Zennism's contribution to making aesthetic ideals practical.
ideas regarding life and art which are so embodied in what we call Teaism
judge verdicts (2)
- groundedness 1.00 pass — The passage explicitly states that Teaism embodies ideas from Zennism (and Taoism), specifically stating 'those ideas regarding life and art which are so embodied in what we call Teaism' in direct reference to both Taoism and Zennism. This is directly supported by the text without requiring outside knowledge.
- qualifier_fidelity 0.90 pass — The claim is largely faithful to the passage. The quote is verbatim and accurately supports the claim. The context 'regarding life and art' is correctly extracted from the passage. The viewpoint is appropriately attributed to the author, and the stance and sentiment are accurate. However, there is a minor issue: the quote actually states that ideas from both 'Taoism and Zennism' are embodied in Teaism ('Our interest in Taoism and Zennism here lies mainly in those ideas regarding life and art which are so embodied in what we call Teaism'), not just Zennism alone. The claim should ideally reflect that both philosophies contribute to Teaism's embodied ideas, or the quote should be adjusted to isolate only the Zennism reference. This represents a slight incompleteness rather than outright infidelity.
