Active — read in full 2026-10-29 (NOTE-1272) from theringer.com; worth reading as the only source for CASE-100's timeline, with the creators' own account. It dates the line's addition to the film (a reshoot, per Kinberg via Polygon) but gives no production testimony on why the line was added: that the director had seen the video is the writer's inference.
The source for CASE-100, from A7 of the exchange of 2026-10-16. A journalistic history, not theory. The Kinberg quote is second-hand; the Polygon original was not found.
