Why this is better
The two occurrences named in the original suggested_change were already fixed to 34-item, but a THIRD body-text mention ('the original 18-item Cacioppo-Petty scale remains the dominant instrument') and the FAQ JSON-LD block both still had the stale 18-item figure. Fixed both to 34-item (matching the 1982 Cacioppo & Petty scale) and re-encoded the FAQ via the standard op-sequence; verified clean on re-fetch. Arceneaux/Fleischhauer corrections were already correct in body and bibliography.
