The qualifiedSpecialists key refers to matching labels, not verified qualifications.
qualifiedSpecialists=count(normalizedTeamIndustry===normalizedRequired); requirementMet=(count>=minimum) Use the stated ordering, units and branch conditions.

}Limitations and assumptions
The result summarizes supplied audit observations under the stated arithmetic or checklist rule. It does not inspect underlying documents, select sufficient audit evidence, make a professional assurance judgment or establish regulatory compliance. Empty or all-true input can describe only the recorded assertions.
Supply explicit values and dense aligned arrays. Unexpected fields, wrong types and nonfinite scalar values are rejected; fixed-token, alignment and other branch conditions are explained above. A successful false flag, empty match list or unknown-evidence list differs from an input error. Extremely large inputs or nonrepresentable results may fail.
