Love me some metadata.

Consider an author who was born in 1944. One edition of their book was published in 1995, and another was published in 1998.

Given this, it is somewhat unlikely there was another edition published in 1800, especially as the publisher who purportedly published said edition did not come into existence until 1802.

Now feed this untruth through a series of neural networks and propagate it into thousands of student essays. Wonderful.
