“No cross-pillar contradiction remains once we recognise that the machine-pillar age statements describe two unrelated people: (1) Jeff Webb, dead at 76, aligns with the map pillar; (2) the “3.5-year-old Meet Jack” anecdote is an independent, low-impact reminiscence. Map, mood and mechanics now converge on two coherent storylines: Jeff Webb’s death and Mohamed Salah’s impending Liverpool exit. Webb’s death is single-sourced but internally consistent, so it carries low residual risk. Salah’s departure appears in three pillars (mood/mechanics) with identical framing, reducing uncertainty to moderate-low. Overall risk posture: LOW-MODERATE—publishable with minor caveats.”
