Abstract
British Columbia (BC), Canada, has unique regulations for sales of alcohol in off-premise establishments where both government (n = 199) and privately controlled stores (n = 977) sell all types of off-premise alcoholic beverages. The purpose of this study is to compare the different marketing approaches of government and private stores and examine how their sales vary in relation to demographic characteristics within the regions that they operate. Data was collected for 89 geographic areas of BC from the following sources: a survey of BC private stores, BC demographic statistics, and sales records for different types of alcoholic beverages from private and government stores. Private stores had higher average prices, longer hours of operation, and were more likely to refrigerate beverages than government stores. Also, types of beverage sold differed between government and private stores depending on the demographic characteristics of the regions being served.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
