Found a loophole in the JFK files release that nobody is talking about

I spent 3 months cross-referencing the PDF metadata against the original microfilm roll numbers from the National Archives and found 47 pages that were swapped out between the 2017 and 2023 releases, has anyone else noticed the timestamps don't match up?

I mean, "nobody is talking about" is kind of a stretch... people dig into this stuff all the time and usually it's just filing errors or bad scans. The timestamps thing could just be different batches getting processed at different times.

Made the same mistake myself a couple years back with some property tax records. Turned out the county office was using two different scanners and one had a slightly off internal clock. Wasn't a conspiracy, just a guy named Phil in accounting who never synced the machine. Took me three weeks of digging to figure that out, felt pretty dumb after.
