Methodology notes
- Official source is authoritative. If anything here ever differs from the agency's publication, the agency is right.
- Missing means missing. When a value is not yet published or unavailable, we show a placeholder — we never estimate or fabricate.
- Revisions are shown as revisions. Revised figures are labeled with the original value where available.
- AI is a sidecar. AI summaries are generated after the fact and never delay a push notification.
