The method in full
Each buyer's own data partner, data licensing and data marketplace pages, read for software were read through estate-fetch and stored whole (sha256 on every row).
For every page, four questions were answered from its own words: whether it names source code, codebases or repositories, what kind of price it publishes, the price, in its words, what it says about code, in its words.
Every stated answer carries the sentence it rests on, checked against the stored text; 'not stated' means the page read does not address the question.
A buyer with several pages reads 'varies' where they disagree.
10 buyers, 10 pages.
