Rationale

Dimension	Rationale
Reliability	High. SEC-filed audited earnings report. Subject to regulatory oversight, Sarbanes-Oxley certification, and independent audit. The gold standard for financial data.
Relevance	High. Nvidia is the dominant AI infrastructure provider. Its profitability directly demonstrates that the "picks and shovels" layer of AI is already massively profitable.
Bias flags	Low for historical reported figures. Forward guidance is subject to market conditions and competitive dynamics, but historical data is highly reliable.
