  "title": "Correction: a reconciliation of historical run counts listed twelve false discrepancies",
  "what_was_wrong": "A reconciliation of historical run counts written on 9 November 2026 matched run identifiers in one field only. Earlier rows carry the identifier in two other fields, so twelve runs with correct counts were listed as discrepancies and the headline figure of 33 was wrong.",
  "what_is_true": "199 runs agree and 21 are exceptions, in three classes.",
  "what_changed": "The twelve entries are withdrawn in place with the reason, and the corrected summary is appended. A reconciliation tool with a self-check and a negative suite now runs before any reconciliation figure is recorded.",
  "what_did_not_change": "No historical value, and no count, rating, Outlook, Watch or published text.",
  "control_analysis": "The resolution of an earlier finding was declared complete without an independent test of the resolution itself. The tool and its negative suite are the control that was missing.",
  "found_by": "An external review; its figures were reproduced exactly."
