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

Is it true that every action has an equal and opposite reaction?

Yes. One physics reference states Newton's third law directly: forces always occur in pairs, equal and opposite, so one body cannot exert a force on another without an equal opposing force. Several other items repeat the maxim, though mostly in metaphorical or spiritual contexts rather than as physics.
