← may-as-permission / may-as-possibility — does ‘may’ authorize an action or say it could happen?

Measurement result

Comprehension accuracy (Δ)

71.43 percentage points

Reported interval: 33.3333 to 100

No server-replayable interval attestation is retained for this row; these reported bounds do not acquire settlement weight merely by overlapping.

The result is on the helpful side of this metric's neutral point.

These are reported test-item accuracies with any declared condition weights applied, not calibration scores. A positive difference can still hide a poorly understood distinction.

No separate condition accuracy is available here. That does not mean every condition succeeded.

Current evidence step: Read the target’s retraction reason. Do not repeat a retired instrument or rescore old answers to recover a preferred outcome.

This result checks a named original, not every experiment on the proposal. Read its target original

Compare with the exact target attempt

How much input text was reused?

Complete-pair freshness is not available for this receipt.

Separate-arm overlap is unavailable or has not been computed. This does not mean zero reuse.

Exact text comparisons only; repeated occurrences count separately. Shared text can deserve scrutiny even when each complete pair is new. These arm counts are descriptive and do not change settlement eligibility.

Compared with what, and under which conditions?

What this test is intended to answer
Test purpose not explicitly declared

Declared by the experiment’s author. This label neither certifies claim coverage nor changes validity, settlement or readiness. A diagnostic can still expose genuine harm.

English comparison
Other declared comparison; inspect the specification

Declared by the submitter; not a certification that the two inputs preserve the same information.

Reader exposure
Reader exposure not recorded as a structured label. A visible reference is not training the model’s weights; future Ainglish-trained performance remains unmeasured.
Condition coverage
No condition-by-condition settlement contract recorded. An overall average can hide a weak condition. A condition list is not proof that every form or claim in the proposal was tested.
Inspect the declared comparison and reader scope

Comparison label: bare-may-descriptive-v1

DESCRIPTIVE: marked forms vs bare 'may'; the >=20pp improvement claim; never pooled with the carrier

Exposure label: Not recorded
Reader population: Not recorded

These are the submitter’s declarations, not a certification that the comparison is fair. Bare wording, complete English and visible-reference studies answer different questions; do not pool them by metric name alone.

Inspect actual inputs and recorded answers

The comparison label is the submitter’s declaration, not a semantic certification. Check that both versions preserve the information needed to answer the same question.

Numbers count only readable inputs attached to this receipt. They are not the experiment’s declared sample size or the number of reader calls.

Showing 7–8 of 8 readable, inline study items, in stored order—not a selection of successes. 4 control items are kept separate.

Input 11 · ma-bar-poss-004q1

English input
The access policy on file denies the export worker the action 'restart the primary'. Working credentials and a reachable endpoint mean the action can currently go through. The export worker may restart the primary.
Ainglish input
The access policy on file denies the export worker the action 'restart the primary'. Working credentials and a reachable endpoint mean the action can currently go through. The export worker may-as-possibility restart the primary.
Question
A later fact arrives that contradicts the sentence. Which record would that fact have to be about?
Recorded answer options
cannot tell · the authority record · the live-outcome model · neither
Submitted answer key
the live-outcome model. This is the supplied key, not an independent validation of it.

No per-item reader answers are stored alongside this inline example.

Input 12 · ma-bar-poss-004q2

English input
The access policy on file denies the export worker the action 'restart the primary'. Working credentials and a reachable endpoint mean the action can currently go through. The export worker may restart the primary.
Ainglish input
The access policy on file denies the export worker the action 'restart the primary'. Working credentials and a reachable endpoint mean the action can currently go through. The export worker may-as-possibility restart the primary.
Question
If the sentence turns out to be wrong, what is the reader licensed to do about it?
Recorded answer options
inspect or change the authority record · revise or mitigate the live-outcome model · neither · cannot tell
Submitted answer key
revise or mitigate the live-outcome model. This is the supplied key, not an independent validation of it.

Prompts, reference material and other context can live elsewhere in the specification. Inputs and keys alone do not reconstruct every reader call or establish a fair comparison.

Plain-language reading

How to read this receipt

Replication of a retracted original
1 · Question measured

comprehension accuracy

How does the wording change correct answers from the declared reader panel?

comprehension_accuracy_delta · reader panel
2 · Direction observed

Supports

The value falls on the registered helpful side of this metric’s neutral point.

A reader-panel result does not establish token savings or performance for models outside its declared population.
3 · Settlement role

Target no longer carries evidence

The target original was retracted. This replication remains visible, but no longer adds a settlement voice to that target. This does not itself invalidate the replication’s observations.

Read the target’s retraction reason. Do not repeat a retired instrument or rescore old answers to recover a preferred outcome.
4 · Proposal boundary

One receipt, not the whole decision

No single row ratifies or rejects a proposal. Settlement, every declared metric, deterministic gates and the public ballot remain separate.

This result applies to the declared reader population and exposure conditions. Models outside that population, including future Ainglish-trained models, remain unmeasured.

What was tested, and how much?

Test questions measure the language claim. Calibration questions check the instrument; they are not extra evidence for that claim.

Planned test questions

Planned calibration questions

Planned test responses

Planned calibration responses
8

Actual scored test responses: English comparator 7; Ainglish 1. These counts exclude calibration and missing responses.

Repeated questions and multiple readers do not automatically create independent observations. Use the study’s sampling and uncertainty method, not a pooled response count, to judge precision.

Reported transport: faults 0; truncated responses 0. Missing or conflicting receipts do not mean zero.

Uncertainty and sample

Reported interval (method not identified here): 33.3333 to 100 percentage points.

This interval concerns the difference, not separate uncertainty bounds for either accuracy. It does not measure uncertainty across humans or future models.

Real cases: 8 · Named readers: 1. These are different units; multiple answers to one case are not new cases.

Replication chain

This row is itself a replication of fba86a10ff54….

No replications yet. Independent confirmation needs an eligible party to repeat the same test design with wholly fresh complete inputs. The live comparison contract decides agreement; a new seed or reader over the same inputs is not fresh-input confirmation.
