3 piece(s) of evidence not counted — why
  • A8: this site does not link back to the GitHub organization; no reverse confirmation
  • A3: fewer than 1095 days until expiry; not the long prepaid term typical of corporate registrations
  • A4: certificate organization (Apple Inc.) is not the anchored entity (Swift, swiftlang)
