Proof and quality
Edition and supplied-file locator checked. Ready for citing the qualified source account, not certification of its historical truth. PDF screens are explicitly distinguished from printed pagination. Flame or gunpowder tests are unsafe historical practices, not a how-to. Do not convert early classes directly into modern proof or treat one instrument's calibration as universal.
