Cherry's Index

Evidence-of-quality score, not a cup score. Methodology

80

Strong

Preliminary

Confidence28% coverage / 2 of 7 signals

Score is partially shrunk toward a neutral 50 — read directionally until more source families land. 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 30% so a single thin signal can’t carry the score on its own.
