Why this is better
Body content was already correctly fixed on the live site. Found and fixed an independent, differently-worded fabrication in the FAQ: 'mean overruns of 28 to 45 percent depending on project type' still preserved the unverified 28% figure, corrected to the body's exact per-category breakdown (20% roads / 45% rail / 34% bridges), re-encoded via the standard 4-step faq op-sequence (base64,json,base64,json), round-trip verified before and after PUT, confirmed clean on live re-fetch.
