  "conclusion": "One exact match is already cited. Two entries are probable matches to existing children; the 1641 Jon has two competing candidates. The Linlithgow entry exposes a misread other-details field. Janet at Polwarth and the unnamed Dirleton subject remain unlinked. Four existing profiles have new qualified notes or a correction queued. These are user-supplied official index results, not newly inspected register images; collection coverage does not establish all historical deaths. Dates are index-event dates until the original distinguishes death, burial or another entry.",
