Language-heuristic totals shifted between early and recent writing
86 vs 19 avg composite (word-list hits + word count term)
This score includes a length term, so longer posts raise it.
Flesch reading ease, a word-pattern count, and tag counts split into the first, middle, and last third of the archive by publish order.
Mean Flesch and mean word-pattern score per quarter. Both lines share one axis; the units are not the same.
Flesch reading ease (violet). Higher = shorter words and sentences on the formula. Syllables are counted by vowel groups. English scores often fall between 30 and 70.
Word-pattern composite (marigold). Word-list hits for discourse, curiosity, and reflection, plus a length term (words÷50). Longer posts score higher by construction.
Both series share one scale. A move in one line is not comparable in size to a move in the other.

One row per third. Higher Flesch = shorter words and sentences on the formula. The word-pattern column is the composite from the chart above.
| Period | Posts | Avg words | Flesch | W.-pattern Σ | Curiosity | Reflective |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Early | 30 | 654 | 36 | 19 | 2 | 2 |
| Middle | 29 | 1007 | 39 | 30 | 1 | 2 |
| Recent | 29 | 2952 | 35 | 86 | 5 | 5 |
Count in the last third minus count in the first third, as a percent of the first third.
Same formula, negative values.
Last eight calendar quarters, newest first. Flesch is computed from the body.
