Shani

Hindu · deity · vedic · deity

TYPE CORRECTED UNDER TEST, and this is the SECOND lane running in which the same thing happened. The treatment says 'Shani is a demi-god' in as many words, and the record was authored that way. npm test rejected it as tier-classification drift: this corpus computes the tier from DESCENT, and both his parents — Surya and a woman made of shadow — are deities in the corpus, so the pipeline computes 'deity'. Lane 16 hit the identical problem from the other direction with Ashwatthama, authored 'demigod' against a computed 'mortal'. The finding is worth stating once: THE SOURCE'S WORD AND THE CORPUS'S COMPUTED TIER ARE DIFFERENT KINDS OF CLAIM. A treatment saying 'demi-god' is describing status; this schema's tier is a function of parentage. Where they disagree the schema wins, because the alternative is a corpus whose type field means two things. He is the most propitiated of the nine in living practice, and the one most people arrange their week around; the corpus held the sun who fathered him and not him.
