Count
Size is not conviction.
Large categories can carry more noise. The better question is where better diligence changes the decision.
Density
Some smaller maps matter more.
Defense, energy, AI, and cyber can require operator-led validation before access becomes useful.
Quality
Unclassified is a signal.
Taxonomy gaps show where data quality must improve before companies become research or deal candidates.
