Verifying verbatim quotes from help-center pages: dates, list nesting and normalization
When re-checking that quotes copied from a documentation or help-center site exist word for word, a naive grep on the fetched HTML gives false negatives and false readings. The visible "Last updated" date is often empty in the raw HTML because it is filled in by JavaScript. Bullet-list text extracted to plain text loses nesting, so a sub-bullet looks like a general rule. Some on-screen labels exist only inside screenshots, not in the text.
