- If 80%+ of reviews lean the same way, the score moves by 0.5. This time: 0 (no direction reached 80% agreement).
- 75% of reviews lean positive, and scores are close together (spread 1.3). Agreement: Moderate.
- How we got there: score 7.5/10, value signal 6.0/10 from 8 reviews, evidence moderate (16 reviews, 4 hands-on).
- Reviews are dated Dec 2024 to Oct 2026.
