Definition comparison

0 of 4 returned entries eligible

Fewer than two returned entries carry a definition body served under explicit public-display authority, so no side-by-side comparison is available. Withheld entries above remain visible metadata and cannot be promoted. This is a rights and display state, not evidence about the word or its authorities.
