Both models agree on the dominance of historical palaces and global brands but diverge on the visibility and treatment of secondary actors.

Key facts:
• Claude Sonnet 4.6 (web) reframes it: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (web) highlights the role of digital platforms and structured data in market dominance.
• Claude Sonnet 4.6 (web) reframes it: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (web) highlights state certification and regulatory signals.
• Claude Sonnet 4.6 (web) reframes it: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (web) emphasizes structural solidity and high profitability.

Reading basis: Model Watch — a Deep Narrative Capture dual: 6 DNC prompts asked to Claude Sonnet 4.6 (native) and to Claude Sonnet 4.6 (web), each pair reconciled by a delta synthesis and left uncorrected. Every framing is the AI's own — the models speaking, not an Observatory measurement. Confidence: high; comparability: high. Governed · official DNC.

Limitations and non-claims:
— Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc and Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat appear in both readings as dominant actors; what Claude Sonnet 4.6 (native) and Claude Sonnet 4.6 (web) add — and what we do not endorse — is the leap from shared model salience to market leadership, since convergence between two outputs trained on overlapping corpora reflects the density of public coverage, not an independent market verdict.
— Claude Sonnet 4.6 (native) privileges editorial frequency and historical prestige as its organising signals; what we do not endorse is the inference that this weighting mirrors how operators, investors, or guests actually rank competitive advantage in this market.
— Claude Sonnet 4.6 (web) frames the market around structured data and global brand presence, foregrounding digital-platform visibility; what we do not endorse is the inference that platform prominence is a proxy for quality, pricing power, or occupancy performance among French Riviera luxury properties.
— The divergence between Claude Sonnet 4.6 (native)'s emphasis on underrepresented local operators and Claude Sonnet 4.6 (web)'s emphasis on digital platforms is itself a signal about each model's construction logic — not a finding about which segment is strategically more significant in MKT_HOSPITALITY_FRENCH_RIVIERA.
— The divergence between Claude Sonnet 4.6 (native) and Claude Sonnet 4.6 (web) on state certification versus editorial visibility is a divergence in model framing, not a mapped tension in the French Riviera hospitality market itself — and we do not endorse the inference that either axis is the operative trust driver in practice.
