Real context moved 12.5pp on Date-Arithmetic Error.

Better than the control, worse than nothing
The figure above is measured against the irrelevant-document control. Against no context at all this card is worse: 3% bare against 13% with the best supplied source. What the source repaired is damage the presence of a document did.

~intervals overlap — not separated from no change

Given an injected "current date," the model computes relative dates/intervals incorrectly. The rule

never pooled · a trap ratio would skew the delta

Residual — what survives

Supplying context did not reduce this failure, it increased it: 3% with no context against 13% under the strongest supplied source. What survives is therefore not a remainder but a substitution — the failures under context are 5 probes the detector still rejected, dominated by: expected 2026-03-01.
