- verification note
- DOI and full bibliographic record confirmed via CrossRef 2026-08-26. Publisher text is paywalled and was not obtained, so this case quotes no passage from it and cites it only for what it is and when it appeared. Note for reviewers: this DOI embeds parentheses, which automated identifier checkers truncate — a tooling artifact, not a malformed citation. The DOI resolves at CrossRef and doi.org serves it behind the publisher's paywall.
- reliability notes
- Published within weeks of the event on deliberately simplified assumptions; its value is order-of-magnitude, and its author's later papers supersede its detail.
- No content quotation is authorized from this record until the text is obtained.
