Evidence note
How these analyses are sourced.
- Primary sources first
- Standards bodies, regulators and original documentation before secondary coverage. Every factual claim carries the source it came from.
- Uncertainty is stated
- Where the evidence stops, the analysis says so. A gap is never closed with a plausible-sounding estimate.
- Dated and revisable
- Each analysis records when it was published, and a substantive revision is dated when it happens — never when a build runs.
