Sub-claim "The x402 protocol uses a pay-per-query model where gas costs…": 10% covered by S4 — S4 mentions x402 as a payment rail for per-request payments, but does not specifically address gas costs or plant-based sensors. No source discusses gas costs in this context.

Sub-claim "The protocol may batch queries or use off-chain computation …": 30% covered by S2, S3 — S2 discusses batched settlements reducing latency, and S3 mentions batching micro-authorizations to reduce gas. However, neither mentions plant-based sensors or off-chain computation specifically.

Sub-claim "Gas costs are dynamically adjusted based on network congesti…": 0% covered — No source discusses dynamic gas cost adjustment or complexity-based pricing for plant-based sensor data.

All three claims have coverage below 0.5. The Ethereum Foundation Blog and Stripe Blog are affordable (0.002 each) and may provide relevant details on gas costs and payment protocols. Other sources are either too expensive or irrelevant.
