Constraint 3: No invented details (titles, names, dates, etc.).
Constraint 4: Output format: Valid JSON only.
Constraint 5: JSON keys: overview (160-220 words) and primer (array of exactly 4 concise bullet points).
Constraint 6: No markdown, no asterisks, no headings, no bullet points (except within the primer array as requested by the JSON structure, though the prompt says "no bullet points" in the prose instructions, it asks for an "array of exactly 4 concise bullet points" for the primer. I will interpret "no bullet points" as "no markdown bullet points in the text" and use the JSON array for the primer).
