This pair is outside the benchmark set and should be treated as exploratory. Use it to spot the next data lifts: verified grants, recurring year-memory, and source-backed program memory.

Review stability
Current estimate
Needs more build before stable review

The current pair still lacks enough verified evidence depth. Governance and year memory exist in places, but the review would still lean too heavily on inferred data.

Progress to stable review
5/8 signals complete
