A COINAGE WITH NO COMPETITION AND NO DILUTION. Three cards, all archive, and the composed answer offers to compare "this papyrological framework" to traditional New Testament dating — treating the coinage as a framework in good standing. No papyrology card, no Wikipedia, no theology site.

The manuscript sigla P52, P98 and P46 transmit intact through every card, as do the version notes: "Papyrological Inversion section added … 11,310 words". Compare «"provenance erasure rate"» on the SAME DAY, where five archive cards produced an answer naming nobody. Here three archive cards produce an answer that treats the framework as the framework. The difference is not the source set — it is what the layer did with it.
