Al dreams of receiving a robe and a new name

    Why Corrects the existing stated/probable claim's type only (confidence was already at the correct probable ceiling); that claim is left standing, not altered.
    Reasoning The dream is recounted in a letter Neville says he received 'yesterday', so the underlying dinner-and-dream happened only shortly before the 1971 telling (itself only probable, catalogue stub d0); this is a worked inference from the letter's own temporal framing, not something the passage states outright, so it is typed estimated rather than stated.
