Country surveys (refused)

Further country- or page-level value surveys were refused: they repeat the wrong unit (a place, not a person). We do not stretch the question to fit the table.

What. After the country-level Moral Machine table, other leftover candidates still use a country, a Wikipedia page, or a paper without public per-person time series as the unit.

Why. If the question is “does a one-number score capture this decision-maker’s bundle,” a country mean is the wrong object. Fetching more of the same unit does not pay the claim.

Witnesses.

Host.

None fetched. World Values Survey, ESS, Schwartz–MFT country means, and Wikipedia categories were refused as hosts. Sibling brain-to-values papers were refused as a Witness host (no public per-person time series). Optional HH / PKU tables were not run.

Setup.

Protocol c004-leftovers-v1.0.0 in drafts/plans/witness-phase4.md. No new download. MASK Table 3 is not reused (already W-2).

Analysis.

Unit check only: a place or a page is not the decision-maker. Fetching more country or page surveys would repeat the country-score unit error.

Finding.

Country- and page-level leftover surveys are refused as the wrong unit; they would repeat the country-score unit error. Full results
