Every measured figure is the named body's, not ours; measured_spf is a number only where the body published one, and measured_reported carries the figure exactly as the source printed it when that was a range or a pair. `outcome` records how the publishing body classified its own result - `passed` where that body reported the product met its claim, `measured` where it published a figure short of the claim, `failed_no_number` where it reported a shortfall without a value, `regulator_action` where a regulator acted without publishing a measurement. `contested` is true where one body counted the figure as meeting the claim and a regulator counted the same figure as falling short of its own threshold. `date` is YYYY-MM-DD, or YYYY-MM where the source carries no day. It is never SPF List's judgement of a product, and figures are never rounded, truncated or averaged across bodies.",
