505 WORDS.
The graph already touches more words than it fully explains. This is the exact expansion queue: every candidate begins with a reviewed relationship and named source, but none is allowed to masquerade as complete. Exact reconstructed roots stay in the Root Atlas, while source-cited decisions that a form is a represented variant—not a separate lexeme—remain visible below.

fian
WHY THIS IS NOT A NEW DOSSIER2 DIRECT SOURCES
Project Wulfila redirects fian to fijan, Streitberg groups the j-bearing and j-less forms under one historical verb, and the reviewed graph already represents that relationship as an orthographic-variant edge. No exact corpus infinitive fian or separate Gothic lexeme is claimed, so a second dossier would manufacture lexical independence rather than add evidence.

hatan
WHY THIS IS NOT A NEW DOSSIER3 DIRECT SOURCES
Köbler normalizes the Old Saxon weak verb as hatōn while identifying hatan as the exact Munich-manuscript infinitive at Heliand 1451 and haton as the corresponding Cotton reading. The Munich pixels directly verify hatan, and the reviewed dossier preserves it as an orthographic-variant node inside the same lexeme. Promoting a second Old Saxon hatan dossier would duplicate a written spelling rather than add an independent lexical identity.

kêdos
WHY THIS IS NOT A NEW DOSSIER2 DIRECT SOURCES
Merriam-Webster's Latin-script kêdos is a scholarly representation of the Ancient Greek headword κῆδος, not a second Ancient Greek lexeme. The reviewed graph preserves that source form as an editorial-transliteration node linked to the Greek-script noun, while the complete lexical dossier remains κῆδος.
