Column name "elapsed_ms" is a duration measure (milliseconds), a classic extensive quantity. All values strictly positive with large unbounded magnitude (min=10, max=10.8M, mean=289K), centered far from 1.0, consistent with real_additive. No naming or numeric signals suggest ratio/multiplicative behavior. Sum is the natural aggregation for combining elapsed times across entities. </reasoning> <table_type_conflict>false</table_type_conflict> </result> ```
