    fix pass after the batch's independent check. Re-opened every page the sheet cites for an address, opening times or a price — the coworking space and its mall, the tourist clinic, the bus station and island buses, the fast ferries and their port address, the flat-price index, the city and national tax pages, and the euro reference rates — and everything held. Changed the SIM card item to read with the country prep in every Croatia city: the hundred outgoing minutes now sit on the 25 euro, 90-day eSIM instead of on every tier. Provenance set to this run's model and date.
