Course coverage and review details

The established 4(f)–(i) field-stage resource IDs and base fragment links are preserved while the surrounding Topic 4 groups are added.

Coverage is reviewed against 9478 topic 4(a)–(n), PDF page 14. Selected-response progress does not by itself prove constructed, diagrammatic or practical performance.
