Final QA pass: verify flagged magnitudes, fix clipped tables, refresh README
- Verified Black (1999) headline against QJE abstract: corrected 2% to 2.5% per 5% test-score increase; verified Campbell et al. (2011) 27% foreclosure discount (text unchanged). - Fixed two pre-existing table-clipping defects: Table 5 (OLS results) split across two pages via ContinuedFloat; appendix landscape table compacted. Build now has 0 overfull vboxes; no values changed. - README badges updated (60 pages, 69 verified references, v1.1). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
