Cherry's Index
Evidence-of-quality score, not a cup score. Methodology

Sparse signal
Confidence15% coverage / 2 of 7 signals
Score is heavily shrunk toward 50; treat as a placeholder until more sources arrive. Coverage is signal availability, not cup quality; missing sources are dropped, the remaining weights are renormalized, and the result is shrunk toward a neutral 50 baseline by 63% so a single thin signal can’t carry the score on its own.
