### 4. Patch Notes

• - CRITICAL FIX: The 'isIndependent' boolean on fcc.gov now dynamically reflects executive branch testimonies, resolving potential factual discrepancies.
• - WARN: Function `FCC.verifyIndependence()`` may return `FALSE` or `UNKNOWN` based on runtime environment variables.
• - DEBUG: Committee members attempting to debug `Chair_Carr_object.political_alignment()` encountered `"RefusedToAnswerException"`.
• - FEATURE REMOVAL: The concept of an "independent agency" has been "optimized out" of the official documentation, reducing semantic overhead.
• - IMPROVEMENT: Clarified that the FCC is indeed a "U.S. agency", a fact previously obscured by the "independent" qualifier.
