SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
with a pen
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | P1 'at appointed-time of' is a root mapping error; in context, עֵט means 'pen' or 'stylus.' Corrected to 'with a pen' to match the intended object and preposition. |
| P1 Flag | root error: misidentified as 'appointed time' instead of writing instrument |
