Reuse: No open redistribution licence asserted. Bibliographic metadata, editorial paraphrases and short attributed quotations (at most 50 words each). Recheck terms before wider redistribution.
Check notes: Candidate pack passage, lab genealogy 2 (research/lab-genealogy-2). The quotation (14 words) matched the retrieved text on 2026-10-29 and again in a fresh retrieval. Read directly from the publisher. Matching ignored differences of whitespace, case, quotation marks, apostrophes, dashes and Unicode compatibility forms, so the source’s typography can differ. A cross-family machine check (2026-10-31, item L231) re-read the record’s sources. No human editorial review.
