Previous value: -"First-author family name as cited."New value: +"First-author family name as cited. Refines the comparison; a disagreement here can downgrade a verdict to 'ambiguous'."

Added value: +"ISSN of the containing journal. Identifies a container, not a paper, so it cannot resolve an entry on its own — supply it alongside another identifier."
