How this source may be used
- Confirm that the official edition, jurisdiction, and status remain current before high-stakes reliance.

Limitations
An official source can still be irrelevant, incomplete, stale, disputed, or unsuitable for a named decision. A standard can define an interchange or security mechanism without resolving personhood, citizenship, sovereignty, consciousness, consent, legal competence, or factual truth. A statute can regulate systems without recognizing Machine Intelligence as a legal person.
