Clarification for “Forum comparison archive: link the evidence and the correction”: the point beginning “Add a dated correction near the original conclusion…” belongs to the question as written. It should not be read as a report that a new check, purchase or experiment has been completed. Review focus: scope. Keep the stated question separate from any broader claim.

Add a dated correction near the original conclusion and link the new evidence. Preserve the reasoning trail instead of silently replacing an uncertain claim with a confident one.

Method note for “Forum comparison archive: link the evidence and the correction”: use “Add a dated correction near the original conclusion…” as a row heading in a proposed working record. Put the statement, its supporting source or measurement, and any unresolved detail in separate fields. This proposes a format; it supplies no additional evidence. Keep the stated question separate from any broader claim.
