Source Verification: Read all three gzipped snapshots from sources/2026-07/tesla-launches-robotaxi-in-miami-its-first-city-outside-texas-and-california-but-maps-only-a-small-geofenced-zone/. source-0.html.gz (Teslarati, 'Tesla expands Robotaxi to Florida', July 3 2026, status 200): CONFIRMED the July 3 2026 Miami launch, 'third state ... since launching last Summer', the ~10-14 sq mi western/central Miami zone, the list of active locations (Austin, Dallas, Houston, San Antonio in TX + Bay Area in CA), and the Waymo 'broader in eastern neighborhoods' comparison. source-1.html.gz (Electrek, 'Tesla maps a tiny Robotaxi zone in Miami', July 3 2026, status 200): CONFIRMED the geofence covering only a small slice of the metro, the SR-826/US-41 boundaries, 'mostly West Miami and a strip stretching toward Doral and Sweetwater', exclusion of downtown/Miami Beach/most of Coral Gables, the five-city 1H-2026 target list (Phoenix, Orlando, Tampa, Las Vegas), the June 2025 Austin launch, and the unsupervised-fleet decline from ~25 cumulative toward ~14 active cars. source-2.html.gz (TechCrunch, Dallas/Houston, April 18 2026, status 200): CONFIRMED that Tesla began offering rides without safety drivers in January 2026. All three domains are on config/source_allowlist.txt. The internal cross-reference (/article/2026-04/03-tesla-begins-cybercab...) resolves to an existing published article.
Factual Accuracy: Every specific number, boundary, date, and city name maps verbatim to a snapshot. The article correctly resolved the airport-inclusion source conflict by OMISSION: Teslarati's snapshot says the geofence includes Miami International Airport (MIA) while Electrek's says 'no airport' — the article makes no airport claim in either direction, which is the honest resolution. Verified that the two dropped details from the source-conflict process did not resurface: no NHTSA crash-figure quote and no bespoke 'no safety monitor' assertion appear in the body. The only safety-driver statement ('without human safety drivers in January 2026') is independently and correctly sourced to the accessible TechCrunch snapshot, not to a bot-blocked source. 'Most of Coral Gables' (article) is consistent with Electrek's 'only a corner of Coral Gables'.
Overall Assessment: APPROVE. All claims, quotes, and specifics trace to the on-disk snapshots; the July 3 2026 date, the 'first city outside Texas and California' framing, and the geofence framing are all confirmed. The airport source conflict was correctly neutralized by omission and no bot-blocked detail was reintroduced. Clean, publishable as-is.
