- Study period
- Research reviewed 2026-10-05
- Limitations
- This is a limited negative finding, not proof that asbestos was absent. Firecrawl search was inaccessible because its keyless quota was exhausted; the CourtListener sweep was blocked before authenticated requests reached the API. No class-era or hull-construction inference is used to claim asbestos aboard.
