This layer is research: read from public sources by the archive's own team, every claim cited with the date it was consulted, and audited where it is marked so. It has not entered the verified store — no figure here was fetched back from its source or stamped with a retrieval time — so it wears no red provenance numeral and never mixes with the verified figures.
This room is published in both editions: the text of each record is in English. What is never translated is what is quoted — the figure exactly as its source published it, the name of the institution that published it, and the title of the legal instrument — because translating a quotation changes it.
