0 100 87.5%

95% confidence interval 72–95%

Why we rank by the confidence boundWe rank by the lower bound of this interval, not raw accuracy. A small sample yields a wide interval and a low bound — so anchors earn their rank by being checked more, not by looking good on a handful of claims.
. 32 checked of 36 checkable · 42 extracted.
