additional property: How the Spin Works
  type: PropertyValue
  value: The title deploys loaded terms ('extreme', 'growing threat') that signal urgency and authority, but no credibility signals (expert quotes, data citations, institutional attribution) are present; the tension lies entirely between the gravity of the language and the total absence of validation — making it functionally unverifiable, not merely unverified.
