Profile notes and wiki pages called .info entries phantom or incorrect, and labelled an upstream list a known defect. They now state what each file declares and what the code reads. The wiki claimed Batocera prefix-matches truncated md5s; its script compares the full string (batocera-systems:1088), which the page now says. The gaps column reads "Not read by profiles" and notes that a profile may be incomplete.

layer handles prefix matching, but the scraper should store the hash as-is.
Scraped data reflects what the upstream declares, which may not match reality. The scraper's job is faithful transcription of upstream data, not correction. Corrections happen in the emulator profiles (source-verified) and in `_shared.yml` (curated). If a scraper detects an obviously wrong hash or filename, log a warning but still include the upstream value. The divergence will surface during truth diffing.
