Column name "tokens_input" indicates a count/quantity (additive signal). Statistics show large unbounded magnitude (max 504489, mean 30859), strictly non-negative with zeros present, centered far from 1.0 - all strong additive signals. The presence of zeros excludes multiplicative. This is a cumulative token count at each sequence step, making it ordinal_additive (instantaneous values that sum across entities but are ordinal along the sequence). High log_symmetry_gain suggests skewed distribution typical of usage counts, not ratios. </reasoning> <table_type_conflict>false</table_type_conflict> </result> ```
