How this was checked
Checked against the source by a first reader, then confirmed independently by a second reader who fetched the source without seeing the first reader's notes (Independent review agent (Claude Sonnet), blind second pass from passage text and citation only, no repository access, 2026-10-31).
Exact match in the auto-captions: 'we're not saying, "Wow, we need fewer sellers." We're saying, "So, we need a lot more sellers."' The captions carry no speaker labels, so the speaker is inferred from the content and not verified.
