We'll need to read adjectives as substantive when there is no other noun (or substantive adjective) in the sentence. When is another noun (or substantive adjectives) present with the same case marker, the adjective should not be read as substantive.
While my CG rules have eliminated this valid form of ambiguity, it only works when we're looking for a noun directly to the right or left of the substantive adjective, so the number of instances it actually resolves is small. Thus my degree of ambiguity has not decreased.
Final evaluation of ambiguity
- Number of all forms: 635
- Number of unique forms: 492
