B · Element × raw variant-label matrix
Each cell counts only merits instance blocks and distinct cases for that element and variant. 0 is a recorded variant with no counted instance; — means not recorded for this element. Cases may occur in multiple cells. Shading groups counts as 0, 1, 2, or 3+ and carries no quality or confidence meaning. Raw labels are not a curated route taxonomy.
