What we did not add

No guessed mission names, vehicle IDs or weapon records

The Extended Look also speaks several additional minor names, but GuideStacker does not create a standalone record from every passing mention. We added Andrés de León, Petra Navarro and Bayside because the footage gives each a clear identity and story or world context; unnamed vehicles, uncertain signage and lightly mentioned NPCs remain held back until official material gives them enough support.
