UNESCO World Heritage Site count is retained as a display-only indicator at v1.0. The scored heritage indicator is ind_fad_registered_monuments_per_province, which provides differentiation across all 77 provinces; the UNESCO count zeroes out 71 provinces and is too sparse to function as a scored indicator. The 0/2 band shown here is informational only and does not contribute to the TLI composite.
Live distribution: 61 of 77 clip at the score-0 floor.
