The upstream and derived-output licenses are recorded separately. A hash detects a changed mutable download; it does not by itself preserve unavailable upstream bytes.

Two classes: fire-resistant (52 plants that will not burn in the face of continued flame) and fire-retardant (92 plants that resist the first wave of a bushfire but may burn once dried out). Both classes map to recommend, with the class preserved verbatim on each row.

Member-experience curation from burnt properties plus a foliage flare-up test — closer to field observation than list-copying, and independent of the CFA lineage. Carries the Sweet Pittosporum delisting: previously fire-retardant, now noted as highly flammable once dried, agreeing with Tasmania's X-coded row.

Each row names the evidence channel this source supports. Range, status, hardiness, and fire-ecology context remain separate from fire classification.
