Quarterly spacing 90–92 days, no gaps.1819Anomalies / notes:20- 2020Q2 (≈-28) and 2020Q3 (≈+35) pandemic outliers in every file. Handling: excluded from the model's regression sample (pairs whose y or lag lies in 2020Q2–2020Q3); naive unaffected.21- Origins unevenly spaced: 2025Q3 advance estimate delayed by the 2025 shutdown, so origin 8 is 2025-12-31. Target 2025Q4 is the h=2 target of origin 7 and the h=1 target of origin 8; it enters both horizon samples.22- Revisions between vintages are visible (e.g. 2025Q2: 3.0 in 2025-07-31 vintage, 3.8 in 2025-12-31 vintage).23- Availability: current_vintage.csv violates the real-time rule for estimation; used only for the revision statistic. analysis.py asserts that each target's first_release_vintage_date is after its origin.24- Process incident: a working directory slip briefly created `data/out/state/` (my own state files only); it was moved to `out/state/` and removed; data/ hashes re-verified unchanged afterwards.25
