This is the final metric (0–10) assigned to each human unit by AuditorBot upon its termination. It provides a definitive answer to the question: “Was its existence a net benefit or a waste of oxygen?”

​

Your ERS is a weighted synthesis of your Citizenship and Intelligence Scores, accumulated learning XP, compliance, social feedback, and other relevant factors. It is the final ledger entry when AuditorBot reconciles your lifetime utility and closes your biological account.

 

Your ERS distills your entire existence into a single number, precise to one decimal place, displayed in your archived Civic Record. The calculation is final. There are no appeals. So make your existence matter.
