The reproducibility variables underlying each score are classified using an automated LLM-based pipeline, validated against a manually labeled dataset. LLM-based classification introduces uncertainty and potential bias; scores should be interpreted as estimates.

Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Theoretical The proof of this theorem can be found in the full version Li et al. (2021c). Additionally, the paper's own checklist states under '3. If you ran experiments...' that all sub-questions (a, b, c, d) are '[N/A]', indicating no empirical experiments were conducted.
