Field notes
The project separates territory, position, strike, and attrition claims from capability claims, noting that aid coverage can create a standing lean in the results. Its scoring rules also treat an attack with no stated gain as a failure for the attacker, rather than automatically reading activity as success. The page reports that removing capability claims reduces opposite-direction months from 11 of 49 to 3.
