RESEARCH NOTE

Publication date, not first-use date; a practice comparison, not a protest. Email interview by Mitali Chakravarty. Alam's named account describes his own practice, not the positions of the other four interviewees or South Asian translators generally. Tool accuracy was not independently evaluated.

Editorial research question

Editorial interpretation: A named translator’s practice provides comparison with replacement narratives without presuming universal opposition.

This is an editorial interpretation or question, separate from factual statements.
