Set out to verify the map's second mode, "Resources found", which had never been tested.
It works: the legend switches, the arithmetic is an exact complement of the gap view — 0
of 170 countries disagreed — and the two modes genuinely repaint, 98/46/12/6 polygons by
band in gap against 85/66/9/2 in coverage.
Proving that took three attempts and the third one found the real defect. Comparing the
fill expression proved nothing, because it is ["get","color"] in BOTH modes — the colour
is baked onto each feature and switching modes rewrites the source data. Comparing the
features instead showed 157 coloured and 5 transparent against 170 rows in the table,
and that mismatch was the thread worth pulling.
The previous refresh of this table only UPDATED rows that already existed, and the table
came from the curated 2,106-record set. So 60 countries carrying pins had no row at all —
150 people groups with nothing found, invisible to every country-level surface. Canada
20, Ghana 15, Timor-Leste 13, Australia 7. 72 countries are now added from the pins, and
0 countries with bare groups are missing; all 242 rows agree with the pins on groups and
no_resource.
Curated columns on the new rows are null, never zero: this build does not know a growth
rate for Canada, and zero is a claim. They are flagged from_pins_only so the different
basis is visible rather than implied. Names come from people-groups-slim's CountryName,
because a row labelled "CAN" renders "CAN" as the sheet's title. UNm49Region was
deliberately NOT used for region — it is a numeric code, and "19" is worse than blank.
One row stays a bare code: Kosovo, whose non-standard KOS has no name in the source, and
inventing one for a single row is not worth it.
The boundary file turns out to hold only 162 polygons and has no Canada, Australia,
Timor-Leste or Taiwan, so this paints five previously-transparent countries and fixes the
rest where it actually shows: clicking a pin in Canada now opens a sheet titled "Canada"
with 304 groups, matching the pins exactly, where before it fell through to a bare ISO
code with no statistics.
