Do not introduce or describe open questions, unresolved uncertainties, assumptions, provisional hypotheses, speculative explanations, or future investigation needs. You may acknowledge a specific gap in established evidence when that lack of knowledge is itself supported by the investigation. Such acknowledgments must not imply a probable outcome, introduce unsupported uncertainty, or direct further investigation. 3. Produce exactly ONE coherent narrative paragraph (or short multi-sentence paragraph) that represents the Current Understanding of the situation. 4. Synthesize all provided evidence into a unified understanding — do not list or append findings. The result should read as a natural summary, not a bullet list. 5. This is a FRESH synthesis from the complete set of inputs above. Do NOT treat any previous Current Understanding as input or authority. Do NOT append to prior summaries.
