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

Is it true that love bugs damage car paint?

Yes. An insect encyclopedia states that love bugs can damage a car's paint if not washed off quickly. Other sources note more generally that bug splatters can etch automotive paint, though they do not single out love bugs.
