# Presentation review — September 17, 2026

This is the public SIR adaptation of the 2025 cyberspace-policy dissertation.
Publication and review of this adaptation do not update or revalidate the original research.

## Independent review

DeepSeek V4 Pro, a provider family separate from the OpenAI and Anthropic models
that produced this adaptation, completed the source-fidelity and browser review
on September 17, 2026. Verdict: **NO MATERIAL GAP**.

The review covered the 24-slide presentation and plain-language text, research
methods, numerical tables, 18 method questions, 15 supplementary IT examples,
and all 32 dependency arrows. The supplementary examples remain educational
illustrations, separately sourced from the dissertation's findings.

Browser checks covered all sector selections, method tabs and keyboard controls,
coding steps, plain-language panel, reader, reduced motion, phone layout, print
geometry, and audio decoding, duration, playback, speed and pause. DeepSeek did
not hear the audio or inspect rendered pixels. Separate OpenAI production QA
inspected desktop/mobile screenshots and the 24-page print export. This does
not turn the production model into an independent visual reviewer.

Three official-source passages were supplied as captured browser-tool results
when direct HTTP retrieval failed; their capture hashes identify the tool output,
not the origin site's HTTP bytes. The independent reviewer assessed those passages.

## What these statuses mean

The podcast recording was accepted after the author's end-to-end listen. Its
script-derived transcript now carries a separate automated audio-comparison
note, including one unresolved word ending at about 12:42.

The article has been independently reviewed and revised. Its final source-project
acceptance record remains open; this presentation review does not close that record.
No original dissertation, accepted recording, or frozen research artifact changed.

## File identities and readability

[source-manifest.json](source-manifest.json) preserves the September 13 source
bundle's identities before reversible website integration. Its entries should
not be compared directly with adapted website bytes.

Subsequent publication changes update status, transcript qualifications and
manifest labeling; research claims and interactive behavior are unchanged.

Recomputed Flesch–Kincaid estimates for that reviewed snapshot were 7.17 for the
plain-language layer, 10.25 for deck body prose, 9.92 for the method page and
11.02 for IT narratives. The plain layer remains below the original 8–10 target,
a recorded deviation rather than an unrecorded waiver. These estimates do not
measure comprehension. Historical measurements describe their original files.
