Cards 1-100, one continuous run, no tiers and no subset blocks. tcdb parent renders Total Cards "100" (https://www.tcdb.com/ViewSet.cfm/sid/257946/2020-21-Panini-Absolute-Memorabilia); Gallery.cfm PageIndex=8/9/10 renders 10 tiles per page and page 10 ends at card 100 with no page 11 link (https://www.tcdb.com/Gallery.cfm/sid/257946/2020-21-Panini-Absolute-Memorabilia?PageIndex=10). EXTRACTION_SPEC 5.3 checked: Checklist.cfm on the parent (https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/257946/2020-21-Panini-Absolute-Memorabilia) carries only "RC" tokens in its flag column on the rows it renders - no AU, MEM or SN code on any base row - and the run ends exactly at the stated Total Cards, so no autograph/relic block is filed past the base run. Errors.cfm on the parent returns "No errors or variations have been added for this set yet." (https://www.tcdb.com/Errors.cfm/sid/257946/2020-21-Panini-Absolute-Memorabilia), so there is no variation set. cardboardconnection heads the base section "Base Set Checklist" / "100 cards." (https://www.cardboardconnection.com/2020-21-panini-absolute-memorabilia-basketball-cards). Rows 71-78 were read on BOTH Checklist.cfm and Gallery.cfm PageIndex=8 and agree exactly - the dropped-row cross-check. Card-level checklist is out of scope for this pass (CHASE_CHECKLIST_SPEC). [CORRECTED 2026-09-20: THE Errors.cfm SENTENCE QUOTED ABOVE IS NOT EVIDENCE AND THE CONCLUSION DRAWN FROM IT DOES NOT HOLD. Measured 2026-09-20 on tcdb sid 182809: Errors.cfm returns that identical sentence for a set whose own renderings carry UER on at least two cards (card 260 Mo Bamba, "UER: Statline says Undrafted, was actually drafted 6th", confirmed under &sort=0; card 67 Justin Jackson, "Career stat line is that of Kosta Koufos"). The endpoint returns the same string on a set that provably HAS errata and on one that appears not to, so it discriminates nothing and its silence is uninformative. WHAT SURVIVES: any claim here about base_set_size, about the base run being contiguous, or about no numbered block sitting past the base run, because those rest on the independent contiguous enumeration also cited in this note - the last rendered Gallery page, the empty page after it, and the per-row flag column. WHAT DOES NOT SURVIVE: the narrower claim that NO VARIATION SET EXISTS. A variation set renders as b-suffixed rows (101a/101b) that a base-run enumeration is not designed to surface, and Errors.cfm was the documented route to it, so that claim is now unsupported rather than disproved - it may still be true. Not re-fetched; recorded so it is not read as settled. See reference/caveats.csv CAV-020.]
