Total: ~85 words.
Problem: The user requested 180-260 words. The source material is extremely sparse.
Constraint Conflict: The prompt says "Use ONLY facts present above" AND "Write a 180-260 word career overview".
Analysis: If I only use the facts provided, I cannot reach 180 words without repeating myself or adding "fluff" that isn't a fact. However, the instructions say "You never invent or guess... If a detail is not in the provided material, you omit it rather than guess."
Strategy: I must expand the prose using the existing facts in a very formal, encyclopedic way, but I cannot invent new facts to meet the word count. If the word count requirement is impossible given the strict "only facts" rule, I must prioritize the "only facts" rule to avoid violating the core instruction of an archivist.
Wait, looking at the source again. There is almost nothing there.
