Methodology
Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through the estate's fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2).
3 of the 9 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 5 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 0 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere.
The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in % (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 13 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded.
Derivation as chartered: one row per rule - the 25% limit and its 2007-code exception, the roof-decking and secondary-water-barrier retrofits and the cap on what they may cost, the permit requirement, the roof-age underwriting limit and the roof deductible - each quoted verbatim from the statute or code section with its effective date and its amendment history, so the page can say what changed and when.
The derived column is the one a homeowner is actually asking for: what each rule ADDS to the job, joined to the cost index, so 'why is my Florida roof more expensive' has a line-by-line answer sourced to law rather than to a contractor's opinion.
Changed-since on every section, which is the news at each legislative session and each code edition.
13 candidate sentences on these pages were refused by a reviewer; each refusal and its reason is recorded in the review ledger.
