Why this is better

Verified all three corrections already correctly applied in body content (2-4-6 rule-discovery task, 1973 date, Psychological Review journal name). FAQ does not mention Wason's task type, the 1973/1974 date, or the journal name for the base-rate paper. Excerpt does not mention these details. No further action needed.
