A pick is made by a fixed rule: unpaid recommendations count three times, sponsored ones once, long-term use and switching count extra, and unpaid doubts count against. We don’t pick when only one option has enough evidence, or when the unpaid opinion is divided. “Not sponsored” means no ad read or disclosure in the content itself. “Unclear” means we couldn’t tell, and we don’t guess.
