    Reasoning 1933: "It was the year 1933, I was unemployed and had no place to go except a little room on 75th Street" (p119638); 1936: the ship manifest for his return to New York lists his address, with his wife Mary, as 154 W. 75th St. (p119640). The existing claims (circa 1929; 1933) stay

    Why The existing 1933 field_date claim's source passage (105359) appears to narrate a different anecdote (the Barbados-in-imagination story with Abdullah), not this event's golden-light vision -- worth another lane's review.
    Reasoning Neville names the year directly while narrating this exact vision, decades after the fact; kept as a probable/circa recollection alongside the existing certain 1933 claim rather than overwriting it, since the two differ by one year and may reflect ordinary autobiographical drift.

    Why Lane L7 (#2354) re-derivation. Supersedes in substance, not in storage, the refuted-date told claim(s) on this event; those rows stand per append-only.
    Reasoning Re-derived, not walked down. The existing told claim(s) on this event took their date from a delivery claim on node 1408 that the corpus has since REFUTED, so the corpus was asserting that Neville told this on a day it separately says he did not lecture. That is a contradiction rather than an over-confidence, and lowering the confidence would have hidden it instead of resolving it. The refutation stands and the told claim is the wrong side of it. Node 1408 surviving (non-refuted) claim: 1969-12-12 at `probable`. All claims on the node: 1968-12-9 refuted; 1969-12-12 probable (preferred). Superseded here: delta 0: 1968-12-09 at `certain` (run `v1.1/l4/w1/D5`) | delta 2: 1968-12-09 at `probable` (run `v1.1/l4/ceiling/c1`). The telling is dated by its lecture, so with the refuted date removed from consideration the surviving claim is what the telling inherits, at that claim own confidence and no higher.

    Source The Mystery of ChristmasPREFERRED delivery claim on lecture nid 1408 'The Mystery of Christmas', stated/exact/certain, 1968-12-09; a second, non-preferred, lower-confidence claim of 1969-12-12 (probable) also exists on this node
    Why Flag for another lane: this lecture's non-preferred alternate date (1969-12-12) exactly matches nid 2050's own preferred delivery date below -- worth checking these two similarly-named lectures ('The Mystery of Christmas' / 'Mystery Life') are not a duplicate pair.
    Reasoning Passage 539329 in this lecture is Neville's own telling of the basement-apartment golden-light vision. The lecture's PREFERRED, certain delivery claim is used. || v1.1/l7/told-close: the delivery claim this was derived from (nid 1408, 1968-12-9) was refuted by the L7 adjudication (#2363). The corrected told claim from the same lecture stands at 1969-12-12. This row is retired rather than deleted so the derivation history remains readable.
