What changed enough to publish
A timestamped research artifact, not a rewritten landing page.
This edition is created only when the ranked permit set changes materially or when a new weekly reporting period begins. It preserves the issue-date window, score logic, and direct detail pages so researchers and agents can cite the state they actually reviewed.
