Recorded purchase outcomes

Did the exact article versions bought for this answer appear in its citations? This view scores retained BUY decisions against payment observations recorded in the same dispatch trace.

Recorded settlement bookkeeping only; Circle and chain settlement have not been independently rechecked here.

This is a partial retained trace sample, not a full payment ledger. An absent matching payment does not prove that no payment occurred; excluded and unconfirmed costs remain unknown.
