SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
its smoke
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | P1 'his smoke' uses a masculine singular suffix, but the context is the mountain (which is masculine). However, the English possessive should match the referent in non-gendered terms: 'its smoke' (referring to the mountain). This matches 'all of it' and clears up ambiguity. |
