Neville's friend Aldous Huxley refused to listen to his accounts of his birth from above and the vision of David, because Neville's colonial accent marked him as an outsider in Huxley's social world.

Reasoning
Qualifying passage ids [541344] belong to telling lecture nids [1503]. Each listed lecture contributes the selected safe envelope year 1969 (MAX of its non-refuted delivery years); 1969 is the MIN across telling lectures.

bound
Why
Tightens the phase4 L6a envelope from before 1969 to before 1969-11-21.
Reasoning
L6a envelope tightened to the telling day of nid 1503 (certain delivery 1969-11-21); same premise, finer precision. The phase4 L6a bound on this event is `before 1969`, an envelope over delivery YEARS computed without reading text. Its premise is that the fact is true by the time it is told; on that same premise the DAY of the telling is a strictly better upper bound. Nothing is re-decided — the bound is stated to the precision the evidence always supported. The delivery claim for 1969-11-21 on nid 1503 is held at `certain` by the corpus, which is what carries this claim. #2274; the L6a row stands beside this one.
