Yes, the Fall 2026 upgrade offer Unsupported: stacks with your family plan discount, giving you both discounts.

Judge verdict

LLM judge · Claude Opus 5.5 · rubric v3

0.09

rubric score · pass threshold 0.70

The top chunk is about refer-a-friend combinations, a different promotion. The correct rule is at rank 3 and says the opposite.

Diagnosis

Retrieval mismatch · Promotion stacking

Root cause

Near-duplicate wording across promotion articles; the wrong promotion ranks first.

Suggested fix

Add promotion name as a required keyword match in hybrid retrieval; evaluate on synthetic-hard-negatives.

Playbook: retrieval mismatch

The retriever returned the wrong article, the wrong section or a stale version.

Detection signals

  • High similarity on the wrong article title
  • Stale-version flag on top-ranked chunks
  • Exception clause split from its rule across chunk boundaries

Common fixes

  1. Filter or boost by effective date and locale metadata
  2. Re-chunk policy articles with heading-aware splitting
  3. Compare hybrid and dense retrieval on the mismatch subset
  4. Use parent-document retrieval so headings travel with chunks
