The synopsis is very short.
The word count requirement is 280-380 words.
Problem: If I only use the provided facts, I cannot reach 280 words without repeating myself or adding "fluff" which violates the "neutral, encyclopedic prose" and "never invent or guess" rules.
Constraint Check: "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing."
Conflict: The prompt asks for 280-380 words but also says "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing."
Decision: I must prioritize the "verifiable facts" and "never invent" rules. If I cannot reach 280 words without violating the "no guessing/no inventing" rule, I have a conflict. However, I will try to expand the prose stylistically (encyclopedic/archival) without adding new facts.
