Dose

Nothing states what this option's dose measures — no library step prescribes this option and its review states no dose unit.

Dose and time, as the papers state it

No row states a dose or a time for this option.

Equipment

Equipment is a property of the movement and is authored, never derived from the evidence corpus (docs/research/round2/ROUND2_KNOWN_CORRECTIONS.md §1). This option resolves to no catalogue exercise, so nothing has authored it yet.

Level and prerequisites

R8's level field records who was eligible for the trial, not what a person needs before trying the practice, so it is not carried here.

Progression and regression

No row states how to make this option harder or easier.

Who should not do this

The papers behind this option report nothing on contraindications, which is not the same as saying there are none.

Setting, as the studies used it

No row describes the setting.

What the papers compared it with

No paper compares this option with another or calls it interchangeable with one.

A paper measuring one option against another does not make the two interchangeable, and it does not say which to choose. These are listed as what the papers did, and nothing here proposes a substitution.
