Vault note, not reviewed against the source. Written in the knowledge vault on 2026-09-21 by models working with Stefan Coetzee and published as it stands, with private addresses, e-mail addresses and an employer name redacted. Check claims against the primary source before relying on them.

One sarcastic recommendation was summarised as a sincere warning, one summary named the wrong person, one was selectively pessimistic against its source. Second logged irony inversion.
