The exact change

Before

(1) "Cloud Storage is Google Cloud's universal answer to object storage. When an exam question mentions unstructured data, files, backups, or media, Cloud Storage is typically the correct service. The storage class selection depends entirely on access frequency and retrieval cost tolerance." -- Google Cloud Associate Cloud Engineer Study Guide, Dan Sullivan (2) "IAM policy inheritance flows down the resource hierarchy. A permission granted at the organization level applies to all folders, projects, and resources below it. A deny policy can restrict permissions regardless of what is granted lower in the hierarchy." -- Google Cloud documentation (3) "Professional Cloud Architect scenarios frequently ask about the trade-offs between reliability, cost, and operational complexity. The best solution is not always the most available or cheapest independently -- it is the one that meets the stated requirements within the given constraints." -- Professional Cloud Architect Study Guide

The storage class selection depends largely on access frequency and retrieval cost tolerance. (2) IAM policy inheritance flows down the resource hierarchy.

Suggested change

De-attributed all three quotes into plain prose, preserving the underlying accurate technical content about Cloud Storage, IAM inheritance, and PCA trade-off scenarios.

Why this is better

Removed three unverified direct quotes: one attributed to a real author's book (Dan Sullivan's Study Guide, no page number, casual phrasing unlikely verbatim), one presented as verbatim 'Google Cloud documentation' with no URL, and one attributed to a generic unnamed 'Professional Cloud Architect Study Guide'. De-attributed all three quotes into plain prose, preserving the underlying accurate technical content about Cloud Storage, IAM inheritance, and PCA trade-off scenarios. Applied directly to the live article content on pass4-sure.us.
