base_set_size 400, ENUMERATED not taken from the header, and the header is right. tcdb's parent states "Total Cards: 400" (https://www.tcdb.com/ViewSet.cfm/sid/141430/2016-17-Panini-Complete) and my own enumeration returns exactly 400 distinct numbers, contiguous 1-400, with no duplicate number, no duplicate player and no hole: https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/141430/2016-17-Panini-Complete?PageIndex=1 (73 rows, span 1-73), ?PageIndex=2 (79 rows, 101-179), ?PageIndex=3 (83 rows, 201-283), ?PageIndex=4 (75 rows, 301-375); alternate slug https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/141430/Complete-2016-17-Panini-Basketball-Cards?PageIndex=4 reached 301-380 and ?PageIndex=1 reached 1-78; topped up by https://www.tcdb.com/Gallery.cfm/sid/141430/2016-17-Panini-Complete?PageIndex=8 / 9 / 10 (71-100), 18 / 19 / 20 (171-200), 29 / 30 (281-300), 39 / 40 (381-400). ?PageIndex=5 on Checklist.cfm renders NO rows, so page 4 is the last page. Gallery paginates by card INDEX and page 40 holds cards 391-400, a 1:1 index-to-number mapping across the whole run, which independently proves no number is unissued. Every endpoint overlap agrees row for row (71-73, 171-179, 281-283, 370-375). cardboardconnection agrees in words: "With a total of 400 cards, there is strong representation from every NBA team." (https://www.cardboardconnection.com/2016-17-panini-complete-basketball), and sportscardchecklist lists "2016-17 Panini Complete (400 Cards)" (https://www.sportscardchecklist.com/sport-basketball/year-2016-17/index-panini-complete/trading-card-checklists-and-product-information). NO BLOCK PAST THE BASE RUN: not one of the 400 rows carries AU, MEM or EXCH on any endpoint - the only flag tokens in the whole run are RC (58 rows) and UER (card 399) - and no player name repeats, so the repeating-roster discriminator is negative too. EXTRACTION_SPEC 5.3 does not fire and nothing is excluded. card_tier is empty on every base card and no base_card_tiers.csv is written: no source names any subset inside the base numbering, and the run is ordered by team, not by tier. TWO INTERIOR CROSS-CHECKS WERE RUN TO CATCH THE EXTRACTION_SPEC 4.1 CONSTANT-SHIFT RENUMBERING DEFECT, because the endpoint overlaps only bound each page's tail: https://www.tcdb.com/Gallery.cfm/sid/141430/2016-17-Panini-Complete?PageIndex=25 renders cards 241-250 and https://www.tcdb.com/Gallery.cfm/sid/141430/2016-17-Panini-Complete?PageIndex=14 renders cards 131-140, both matching the Checklist.cfm transcription number for number, player for player and flag for flag (including RC on 241 Georges Niang and 132 Joel Bolomboy, and the cross-team row 248 Ty Lawson / Sacramento Kings).
