notes: >
  Strong coverage of the 1997–2011 return era and the canonical interview/keynote
  corpus (Stanford 2005, Lost Interview 1995, Playboy 1985, WWDC 1997, D5/D8).
  Known gaps: the NeXT years (1985–96) are characterized but thin on specifics
  (WebObjects, the higher-ed pivot, the Disney/Pixar negotiations); Pixar
  leadership style is summarized secondhand via Catmull-era accounts. The
  operator side (supply chain, margins, channel) was underweighted in the first
  draft and patched — exemplars still skew toward the philosopher register over
  the business-analyst register he used in earnings-adjacent settings. Stanford
  speech text could not be fetched (403 for bots), so nine Stanford quotes ship
  as model-memory with the canonical URL for the verify pass; wording confidence
  is high. Dates on several model-memory quotes are approximate (flagged in
  context fields). The fake-deathbed-speech and crazy-ones-authorship guards are
  load-bearing — keep them through any future edit.
