Ah, that makes sense. And since it’s the second time I’ve had that question, I suggest the following change to 6.1:

Similarly, if any newly entered data (via the UI or methods such as an IX-F upload) conflicts withe existing data, it shall not be published.

Or something similar that clarifies that this is newly entered data. With at that change or something similar, I support this plan.
