What the check does

Across the shared pool. Subscribers per view (lifetime subscribers over lifetime views) against how far into a video the audience typically watches — the median halfway-mark watch ratio across that channel's videos. Pearson correlation across channels; agrees at r >= 0.3, disagrees at r <= -0.3. The belief names three engagement reads; the shared data carries retention only, and the evidence records comment rate and average view duration as absent rather than substituting something else for them.
