Assembled from DataCite full-metadata capture; no live authorial surface passed the body-head gate or existed for this work at restoration time. All captured fields rendered verbatim in the body.
Superseded on sight by any recovered canonical bytes; the captured metadata is verifiable against the DataCite API historical record and the Zenodo tombstone.

Full text not yet recovered. If the canonical bytes surface on any authorial surface, a full-text version supersedes this record in-series per the versioning protocol. This record exists so the DOI resolves to the work's true identity rather than to silence.
