  "summary": "Attempted falsification of the headline (TE and kickers show the supported wind-related decline; QB/RB/WR do not) against the underlying estimates. All numeric claims in the article, table, and figure match the analysis effects exactly (means, adjusted differences, HC3 intervals, Holm p-values). The headline names its subject (NFL fantasy scoring by position), outcome (scoring change in 15+ mph wind), and time frame (through the 2024 season), and remains interpretable with the series label, dek, and axes removed. The chart caption and alt text name the comparison and units. No undefined percentages or unexplained shorthand ('supported' is explicitly defined by interval exclusion of zero, with the Holm p-values disclosed alongside).",

      "severity": "note",
      "check": "alternate_explanations",
      "evidence": "analysis.json#effects (all five outcomes); article paragraph 2",
      "recommendation": "The word 'supported' for TE and kicker rests on HC3 intervals excluding zero while Holm-adjusted p-values are 0.129. The article discloses this tension directly ('best read as a consistent negative signal rather than a certainty') and lists it in limitations, so it is a disclosed limitation rather than a fatal flaw. Bootstrap p-values (0.0105 TE, 0.0005 kicker) are consistent with the intervals but are not shown in the article; adding them would strengthen the 'supported' framing but is not required."

      "severity": "note",
      "check": "scope_errors",
      "evidence": "article paragraph 1; limitations list",
      "recommendation": "The study uses combined home-plus-away scoring, so a -2.9 TE point change is roughly -1.5 points per team's TE room, not per player. The article states this explicitly and warns against individual sit/start rules, which is the correct guardrail against a fantasy reader over-applying the result."

      "check": "stale_data_implications",
      "evidence": "source_lag (requested_through 2025, available_through 2024); freshness_requirement (minimum_season 2024)",
      "recommendation": "Weather data stop at 2024 while player data run through 2025. The title and body both carry 'Through the 2024 NFL Season,' and the source-lag handling is disclosed, so the freshness floor is met. Readers in the 2025 season should note the estimates exclude the most recent year, but this is disclosed scope, not a defect."
    },
    {
      "severity": "note",
      "check": "omitted_context",
      "evidence": "article paragraph 3 (RB +1.8, interval -1.7 to +5.2)",
      "recommendation": "The RB 'ground game picks up slack' framing is a null result with an interval crossing zero; the article labels it as such ('a hint... but again the interval includes zero'). Acceptable, but the phrase 'directionally coherent' in paragraph 5 slightly editorializes a pattern that is mostly noise; it is bounded by the magnitude discussion that follows."
    },
    {
      "severity": "warning",
      "check": "over_application",
      "evidence": "article final paragraph; research_audit leakage_checks",
      "recommendation": "The strongest residual risk is a reader converting observed-wind associations into pregame forecast advice. The article addresses this directly (observed game-window wind is not a forecast input; no causal or benching claims), and the leakage check enforces the boundary. No change required, but distribution copy (email preview 'Kickers and tight ends lose the most scoring in windy games') should retain the association-only framing wherever the summary travels."
