The scout memo identified a possible online-mainstream gap around india's trade deal gets a friendly line and a tariff threat, but no verified same-session status URL is attached; this article keeps that online frame unproved and anchors the public record in the cited record. [2]

The next edition should move india's trade deal gets a friendly line and a tariff threat only if a later filing, notice, measurement, vote, schedule, map, lot number, or source date changes the public record. A louder reaction without that change is a new argument, not a new fact.

For this economy story, the public record is not a decorative detail. It is the part of india's trade deal gets a friendly line and a tariff threat a reader can test after the headline cycle moves on.
