Entity disambiguation
Entity disambiguation is stating explicitly what you are not, and what distinguishes you from similarly named things.
Why it matters
Entity confusion is the most common AEO failure and the easiest to prevent, at one sentence per confusable entity.
How it is measured
Read the disambiguation section of llms-full.txt and confirm it has at least two entries.
