The synopsis is extremely brief.
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 "only verifiable facts" 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."
Resolution: In professional archiving, if the source material is insufficient to meet a length requirement without violating truthfulness, the archivist must prioritize accuracy over length. However, as an AI, I should try to expand the context using the provided sources (like the series overview) to see if I can reach the length.
Available context: The series follows the personal and professional lives of doctors at Seattle's Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital. Meredith Grey is a character.
