Category Standard

Devon Energy is an established S&P 500 company with undeniable real-world utility and massive scale ($15B+ revenue), satisfying the highest tiers of traction and reach. However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality ('ThunderWing', 'marketcap: null'), relying entirely on public knowledge rather than provided evidence. The score reflects the entity's immense verifiable impact, penalized slightly for the lack of specific project detail and poor response quality.
