   Acemoglu-Restrepo robots paper appeared in Journal of Political Economy (2020), not AER (2019)

   Before

   Their 2019 American Economic Review paper found that each additional robot per thousand workers reduced the employment-to-population ratio by 0.2 percentage points and wages by 0.4 percentage points in the most affected commuting zones.

   After

   Their 2020 Journal of Political Economy paper found that each additional robot per thousand workers reduced the employment-to-population ratio by 0.2 percentage points and wages by 0.4 percentage points in the most affected commuting zones.

   Why: Body text was already correctly fixed to '2020 Journal of Political Economy'. However the FAQ JSON-LD schema still contained the stale 'Their 2019 AER paper found...' fabrication in the automation/task-model Q&A.

   Fixed the FAQ answer to 'Their 2020 Journal of Political Economy paper found...', re-encoded using the reverse op sequence, PUT the post, and verified via re-fetch + re-decode that the FAQ array (7 entries) is valid, contains the corrected citation, and no longer contains the stale one. Article has no separate bibliography section.
