Document-based rating

5.3/10

Moderate rating (5.0 to 6.4)

Evidence coverage: medium

How solid the credit is, as far as the registry's public documents show. Additionality and quantification start from a public grade; permanence starts at 5.0, the neutral point, where none applies, and claim safety always does.
