The before/after test of Search Console notes

The before/after test of Search Console notes and Google updates (together 1 to 20), read at the property's snapshot over final days: did clicks, impressions, click-through rate and position move after the event by more than the same weeks a year earlier and this site's own ups and downs explain? Per subject, metrics per figure: state judged (verdict up, down, no_clear_change or conflict) or what is missing (waiting until the window closes; no_history, no_season, gaps, too_quiet, unsupported, too_large), each with its sentence. Each figure is judged on its own, so with four one may show a change by chance: lead with clicks. Also site_change, scope_note, plot, overlaps, anomalies, coverage, and seo_gets_rule (for comparison only). A note not on the site is NOT_FOUND. Paid (notes): BILLING_REQUIRED.
