Cherry's Index

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

76

Strong

High confidence

Confidence75% coverage / 5 of 7 signals

Multiple independent source families support this score at full weight.

How confidence affects the score

Coverage measures signal availability, not cup quality. Missing sources are dropped, remaining weights are renormalized, and the result is shrunk toward a neutral 50 baseline by 0% so one thin signal cannot carry the score on its own.
