}Limitations and assumptions
This is a vocabulary lookup, without document diffing or CSS interpretation.
This evaluates supplied local information; it does not fetch a page or run a browser. Malformed requests produce input errors. A successfully evaluated request can still contain false flags, empty result lists or a result outside the supplied threshold; those outcomes have the meanings stated above.
