Qualifications and limits
Substantial word-level and syntactic gaps remain.
Later source labels 13 and 21 are not supplied or reconstructed.
Later questionnaire material after label 27 remains unedited, apart from the separate marginal report and descriptive closing.
Unused interrogatory questions 5–37 remain unedited.
The closing description is not a bilingual edition of the final numbered question or the preceding continuation.
The whole case remains partial; the final judgment has not been read.
Dates are preserved as catalogue literals; they do not date every act inside the file.
Names in this record are not automatically merged with namesakes in other records.
Allegations, proposed questions, pleadings and testimony are not adjudicated facts or pedigree edges.
This record is distinct from the 1612–1622 fiscal lawsuit INQUISICIÓN,4548,Exp.1.
The later questionnaire is contextually associated with a replacement instrument. This does not establish authorship or use of every question.
The final source label 48 is not a verified count of 48 textual questions.
The marginal note on image 102 reports presentation and examination, but supplies no witness answers or proof that every question was administered.
Names, kinship expressions, religious classifications and conduct allegations in proposed questions remain attributed propositions. No genealogy edge is generated.
