Why this is better

Verified live article (post 519, how-careers-actually-progress): body already correctly reads 'published in the American Sociological Review in 2019'. Checked FAQ (4-step op-sequence, 5 items) and excerpt independently - neither mentions Rivera/Tilcsik or this paper's journal/year. Already correct, no PUT needed.
