Handled in the model by dropping regression observations with dependent quarter in 2020Q2–2020Q4.21- The 8th origin is 2025-12-31 (not 2025-10-31) because the 2025Q3 advance estimate was delayed by the shutdown; spacing between origins 7 and 8 is 5 months. The h=1 target of origin 8 (2025Q4) was first released in the 2026-02-28 vintage (also delayed).22- Last value of each vintage equals the first release of that quarter (checked in analysis.py).23- Revisions within vintages are visible (e.g. 2025Q1: -0.3 → -0.5 → -0.6 → current 0.1).24- Availability: current_vintage.csv contains post-origin information; it is used only for the revision statistic. first_release.csv is used only as actuals. No input is used in violation of the rules.25
