additional property: How the Spin Works
  type: PropertyValue
  value: The framing combines peer-validation language ('you guys too?') with vague temporal phrasing ('again') to imply pattern without proof — making the incident feel familiar and unremarkable, even though no evidence is offered about frequency, cause, or impact. The tension lies between the implied systemic nature of the claim and the total absence of verifiable detail.
