Doubao locale variance tracking
Doubao is a mainland-China product and we treat it as one. Locale work here is about verifying that collection genuinely looks domestic, not about running it across markets.
How it renders
Controlled by domestic egress and account provenance.
Sampling
Each locale is its own sample set. A cross-market comparison at n=30 per market costs what it says on the tin, which is why we surface the arithmetic before you commit.
Gotcha
What the API returns
A single collection call against Doubao for the locale variance field, sampled n times and returned as one object per prompt.

- A different product surface, and we will say so rather than substituting it.
