 "observed": "2026-09-23",
 "rule": "A change is recorded only when an earlier dated official observation and a current official observation cover the same institution, scope and stage. Coding corrections and URL moves are logged separately and are never presented as policy change. No earlier state is reconstructed without an archived primary source.",
 "summary": "WGI re-observed the eight institutions in version 1.0 (first observed 9 to 19 September 2026) on 23 September 2026. No policy change was verified in that window. One official page moved (A&O Shearman's London FAQ). Two version 1.0 codings were corrected (BCG's own AI uses were broader than coded; Clifford Chance's human-review wording is conditional on passing the online assessments). A two-to-fourteen-day window is too short to expect change; the value of this baseline is the next re-observation.",
