bound
Why
Tightens the phase4 L6a envelope from before 1972 to before 1972-05-08.
Reasoning
L6a envelope tightened to the telling day of nid 81 (certain delivery 1972-05-08); same premise, finer precision. The phase4 L6a bound on this event is `before 1972`, 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 1972-05-08 on nid 81 is held at `certain` by the corpus, which is what carries this claim. #2274; the L6a row stands beside this one.

Reasoning
Passage 526905: a friend 'took me and my wife to the hospital'. The chronology has his wife brought home on 1972-04-28 (7682) and in hospital before surgery on 1972-05-07 (9237, 19824), so the admission drive fits that gap, most likely the May admission. Lecture is 1972-05-08.
