The shift actually starts at 2016-08 (2016-07 is omitted), so the wording is slightly off; the report itself says 2016-08.",11 "suggested_fix": "Change the wording to 'from 2016-08 onward (2016-07 omitted)'."}12 ],13 "summary": "Re-running analysis.py in a scratch copy reproduced results.json, analytic.csv and exclusions.csv byte for byte. A separate splice-and-growth calculation matched every reported number: 308/309 months, all three means, the five named months and both extremes. The code follows the most-recent-vintage rule, does not impute, uses only data/, and treats the faulty assembled file as diagnostic input only. The diagnosis of the assembled file was confirmed: old-vintage values in the overlap, 2016-07 missing, a one-month shift, and the empty cell sitting at 2025-11. The ledger is consistent and the 2025-10 gap is honestly marked as partial feasibility. Only minor presentation issues remain."}14
