fix pass after the batch check. Reopened the coworking, hospital, bus-fare, library, park, tax and price pages: every address, timetable, phone and fare quoted is on its cited page, including the hospital phone number and the bus station street. Aligned Currency & Banking, Tap Water, Corporate Tax, Dividend Withholding Tax, Tax System, Highest Income Tax Bracket and Attractive Tax System for Digital Nomads with the country prep and the fixed comparison cities: the euro-per-dollar figure now carries the prep's fourth decimal, tap water uses the shared Spain wording, the residence test and the impatriate and withholding figures are cited to pages that state them, and the Canary special-zone dividend sentence moved off the country lines. Refreshed the research model and verification date (https://taxsummaries.pwc.com/spain/individual/residence).
