PhotoAI's sitemap passes 11,100 pages by Sep 15.

Why it matters: PhotoAI is the largest programmatic-SEO footprint on this desk's books and it has been adding about 27 pages a day, 10,238 to 10,618 in the fourteen days to Aug 29. Carry that rate to Sep 15 and it reaches 11,079 — twenty-one pages short of this line. A coin flip by construction: the call resolves on whether the page machine speeds up at all, not on whether it keeps running.

Recompute it from the frozen fields (id, issued, track, board, slug, title, why, type, metric, threshold, deadline, confidence, tier, evidence, baseline, default) serialized as sorted-key JSON. If it doesn’t match this page’s history, we edited the record — and you caught us.

VERDICT RULE: graded only against the instrument reading dated exactly on the deadline. No reading that day → the frozen default above. Never a stale number. Methodology · corrections to verdicts are appended, never edited — /corrections/.
