Category Standard

Berry Global is a Fortune 500 manufacturing giant with massive, undeniable real-world utility and traction (40k+ employees, ~$8B market cap). However, the submission itself is low-effort ('ThunderClaw', generic descriptions), lacking specific technical details or verifiable project-level data beyond the corporate entity's existence. The score reflects the immense scale of the business, penalized significantly for the poor quality of the submission evidence and lack of specific technical innovation details.
