Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that a blackbody is a fictional object which absorbs all incident radiation?

Yes. A blackbody is an idealized theoretical construct defined as a perfect absorber of all incident radiation, and physics textbooks note that no physical object in reality absorbs 100% of radiation.
