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

Is it true that processes proceed in the direction of positive total entropy change?

The statement that natural spontaneous processes proceed in the direction of an increase in total entropy is a fundamental formulation of the second law of thermodynamics and represents a foundational principle of physics that requires no specific citation.
