    fix pass after the batch's independent check, same light depth, every cited page re-opened. Regional Travel now cites the ferry operator's own line 631 Split to Supetar page instead of the winery page, which shows nothing about ferries. Best Coworking Space keeps the hotel conference centre but states the page's own numbers (five halls, largest 700 seats, up to 1,000 attendees) and drops the meeting-room Wi-Fi phrase the page does not show. Tap Water keeps the same Cetina wording, now on the encyclopedia article on Brač because the environmental study PDF is gone. Researcher line and verification date updated.

    fix pass aligned Currency & Banking, Tap Water, Power, SIM Card, Tax System, Highest Income Tax Bracket, VAT, and Attractive Tax System for Digital Nomads with the shared Greece wording, retaining the country-prep exchange rate and mobile prices. Top Regional Airline changed from a round-trip claim to November one-way economy fares from 43 euro (https://www.skyexpress.gr/en/flights-from-zakynthos-to-athens). Best Hospital, Museums & Art Venues, and Main Train/Transit Hub now have explicit address-verification limitations; Tax System records that the day count comes from the country tax profile. Research provenance and source retrieval dates were updated for this fix pass.
