What the curve says — and what it does not
The distribution shows deposits made to the national library, not necessarily the work produced. A year without an entry means no record exists for that year — not that nothing was made.
The publication date is the date recorded in the catalogue. Platform dates demonstrably differ from it; see provenance.
