Problem

The hosting comparison table header says everything "was checked on the date above," but it presents stale/proposed figures as current: Bitbucket Premium is listed ~~$6 while Atlassian's current price is higher (~~$7.25; the verify note's "~$5-6" also undershoots); SourceHut tiers are listed as concrete though the module's own checklist admits they were "proposed for 2026"; and the SourceHut "(reduced ~$2)" parenthetical may misrepresent how the reduced rate works.

Evidence

modules/08-remotes-and-hosting/README.md table: "Bitbucket … Premium ~$6/user"; "SourceHut | ~$5 / $10 / $15 tiers (reduced ~$2)". Checklist: SourceHut tiers "were proposed for 2026; confirm they're in effect."

Why it matters

Internal inconsistency tied to the honesty promise: the table asserts as current what the module's own checklist flags as unconfirmed.

Proposed change

Tag the SourceHut tier figures "(proposed)" inline (or verify and confirm in-effect), matching the checklist.
Verify and update Bitbucket toward current (~$3.65 Standard / ~~$7.25 Premium), kept approximate with the "~~$" style, and reconcile the verify note.
Verify the SourceHut "(reduced ~$2)" wording against SourceHut's actual reduced-rate/financial-aid policy and correct if needed.
Mark all of this Verify-before-publish.

Acceptance criteria

No table figure is presented as current that the module's checklist marks unconfirmed.
Bitbucket and SourceHut figures are verified and reconciled with the verify notes.

Source finding F54 (realVotes 2/3 — one lens noted SourceHut may offer a real $2 reduced rate, so verify rather than assume; lower confidence). Re-verify all pricing at build time.
