Known metadata gaps
Recorded explicitly rather than guessed.
- Lineage partly unresolved. The work generalises across a literature it cites throughout; Lithoen has recorded the upstream attributions it read for specific values and has not traced the rest, so the model’s general statements have an unresolved origin.
