Issue A fixed frame with a shifting indicator base does not make editions comparable
Summary
The report justifies leaving the GOI's structure and category framework unchanged since 2016 as a comparability measure, while acknowledging in the same passage that the indicators populating that framework have changed with global conditions - so the stability that is claimed applies to the container and not to the scores or ranks it produces.
