How the score is built
It is not an impression turned into a figure: it is a sum, and it is all below. Each item shows the points it kept out of the points it was worth.
How the text is written
Language neutrality 63/100. These measures are computed by our code, not by the model: they are repeatable counts, each with its weight and the points it kept. They measure how the text is written, not whether it is accurate.
