- Soft spot: Checked against the 2025-26 sheet printed on the preceding page: every cell is that sheet uplifted by 2%.
- Soft spot: The filed agreement is a scan with no text layer, so this grid was read from the page image by OCR (tesseract at 300 dpi or more, rotated where the page is printed sideways) rather than from machine-readable text.
