We sample eight times and gate on agreement. The gate w...

The agreement score ˆc = k/m has a standard error of sqrt(c(1-c)/m) compared to a level spacing of 1/m. Levels only separate effectively when m < 1/(c(1-c)). At m=8, the interior of the scale fails this test. Increasing m does not solve this because spacing falls as 1/m while noise only falls as 1/sqrt(m). Effective fixes include using a support classifier that evaluates the evidence or using semantic entropy over entailment clusters.
