The column name "total_score" indicates an absolute rating/level, not a ratio. Center of mass at 3.38 (median 3.5) in bounded range [0.1, 5.0] is characteristic of an intensive level measure, not centered near 0 or 1. Negative log_symmetry_gain confirms this is not a ratio distribution. This is a rating scale where averaging across entities is meaningful but summing is not (you don't add up star ratings). </reasoning> <table_type_conflict>false</table_type_conflict> </result> ```
