 "methodology": "Each organisation's own organisations own pages for companies selling or closing were read through estate-fetch and stored whole (sha256 on every row). For every page, four questions were answered from its own words: which side of the deal it sits on, whether a closing or exiting firm is named, whether it asks for years of operating history, what it says it wants, quoted. Every stated answer carries the sentence it rests on, checked against the stored text; 'not stated' means the page read does not address the question. A organisation with several pages reads 'varies' where they disagree. 4 organisations, 5 pages.",
