Notes

FULL-ROW TOKEN SWEEP, never a sample (CAV-050): every rendered row's flag column was read and the DISTINCT token set recorded. 71 of 71 rows carry the identical token string, confirmed on TWO differently-varied fetches: https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/154880/2016-17-Panini-Grand-Reserve-Reserve-Materials-Granite?sort=0 and https://www.tcdb.com/ViewSet.cfm/sid/154880/2016-17-Panini-Grand-Reserve-Reserve-Materials-Granite . tcdb states "Total Cards: 71"; the rendered numbers run 1-75 with 2, 9, 11 and 45 absent, which is exactly 71 and RECONCILES THE HEADER - so the row-count-versus-number-span tell firing here (71 rows over a 75-wide span) is explained by four genuinely absent numbers in this tier and not by truncation. The second fetch was asked to list the absent numbers independently and returned the same four, to name any card whose token is not SN25, answering "NONE DIFFER", and to list any empty flag column, answering none. DISTINCT TOKEN SET {MEM, SN25}. `single`: cardboardconnection states the parent set at "#/35" but names no tier (https://www.cardboardconnection.com/2016-17-panini-grand-reserve-basketball). CHANNEL: hobby with basis `sourced-presence`, NOT exclusivity. The statement is PRODUCT-LEVEL - Panini's own blog says "each hobby box of 2017 Grand Reserve Basketball" (https://blog.paniniamerica.net/the-panini-america-quality-control-gallery-2016-17-grand-reserve-basketball/), cardboardconnection says "three hits per hobby box" and gives one single configuration, "8 cards per pack, 3 packs per box, 8 boxes per case" (https://www.cardboardconnection.com/2016-17-panini-grand-reserve-basketball), and blowoutbuzz gives one SRP for the same pack (https://blowoutbuzz.wordpress.com/2017/05/16/first-buzz-2016-17-panini-grand-reserve-basketball-cards/). No source consulted names a retail, blaster, mega or international SKU for this product, and no source claims exclusivity, so presence is the strongest claim the evidence supports and it is applied at product level rather than per tier.
