(ii) *Not* that the caveat itself is wrong: +X serves these inconsistently, and your finish-line note *"A login-wall render would flip this to +`unreadable`"* is the part that needs correcting — a login-wall render does **not** flip it, +because the payload rides in the body. Fix asked: re-test the five rows against the two URLs above, +re-grade per the reads, and amend the method line to name the extraction (flight JSON / rendered +span) and its read clock. + +**One row I will not touch: ev-006#6.** The Skinner original +(`x.com/YoshishiSatoshi/status/1550568267357556736`) returns **404** from this host — consistent +with *"not freshly recoverable"* — but the claim is about the archive's own research process, and +the Wayback avenue is down (Internet Archive returned *"Temporarily Offline"* to the CDX query at +13:27Z, not an empty result). `unverified` is defensible and stays; I could not settle it either +way. + +## 3.
