COMPUTED
Why?

Evidence: af1c288d-7e20-451c-8474-b2263e9977a4 · uto.towns

Reasoning: Direct read of the canonical town record.

Limitation: Record status describes the record, not operational activity.

AUTHORED
Why?

Evidence: MANTSOPA_LOCAL_MUNICIPALITY_PACK · 2023-10-05

Reasoning: Research artefact summary — authored intelligence, carrying its own confidence and review state.

Limitation: review_required: true. Field intelligence is not operational truth.

Work, proof, people and economics for this town are protected records — they exist in the canonical system and are not available to this experience.

RECORDS NOT ACCESSIBLE
Why?

Limitation: Never rendered as zero. Authorised operational access would unlock these layers.
