Notes

FULL-ROW TOKEN SWEEP, never a sample (CAV-050): every rendered row's flag column was read and the DISTINCT token set recorded. 40 of 40 rows read at https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/154911/2016-17-Panini-Grand-Reserve-Rookie-Cornerstones-Onyx?sort=0 ; tcdb states "Total Cards: 40", numbers 101-140 contiguous. DISTINCT TOKEN SET {AU, MEM, SN1} - uniform 1/1, and the page was asked to name any differing card, answering none. `multi` because Panini's own blog and cardboardconnection both state "Onyx 1/1" for the Cornerstones family, which the blog says covers "veterans, rookies and legends" (https://blog.paniniamerica.net/the-panini-america-quality-control-gallery-2016-17-grand-reserve-basketball/ ; 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.
