Traps it covers

only_in_file Facts that are in no record field but overlap across files, in different words. The appraised values of the Omega ($4,150) and the pearls ($1,900) are in the 2024 appraisal and on the valuables schedule; the 2016 appraisal has older figures. The successor trustees and the specific gifts are in the trust. What happens to the cabin is in the trust (sold), in the amendment that replaced that paragraph (kept by the three children; the saved amendment is a scan with no text) and in the lawyer's letter that explains the amendment. Ray's 2026 required withdrawal ($28,012.02) is on the IRA statement and in the advisor's letter, and the 2025 tax summary gives it as "about $28,000". The porch change order is in the contract; the receipt says only that the porch came in $800 over.

mismatch The pump report gives the well as 96 feet deep with the pump set at 82 feet. The receipt says "pump at 82 feet", and a note calls the well "82 feet". The report is right; the others are shorthand.

note_contradicts_record The note, written from memory, says the dock went in in June 2015 and its frame is covered until 2030. The receipt and the warranty say June 14, 2014 and 2029. The records are right.
