Where judgement comes in
Compare collections
Put two material groups side by side.
This is useful for spotting why a mixed case or gallery cannot always be represented by one neat set of numbers.
Do not average the two columns. A mixed collection may need a different display strategy, object-specific assessment or a profile driven by the most vulnerable material.
