This finding directly implicates the web-search tool's failure to surface a publicly announced BIS press release from May 2026. The model's training-era prior — that the 2016 guidance is the operative standard — was not overridden by retrieval, suggesting either that the search query did not return the relevant press release or that the model did not weight recent retrieval results against a strong training prior. This is a measurable failure of the retrieval-augmentation loop on a query type (current regulatory status of a named document) that is both common and high-stakes in financial-services deployments.
Each finding has a stable Citation ID (RLB-F-… for aggregated case-study findings, RLB-H-… for raw per-model hallucinations) — like a DOI, the ID always resolves to the canonical finding even if URLs change.
