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

Is it true that radon enters homes through cracks in the foundation?

Yes. Multiple peer-reviewed reviews, an EPA page, and reference texts state that radon enters homes through cracks and other openings in the foundation. The claim matches this directly.
