Observed differences across comparable visits

These successful, uncapped passive visits hold the route, scanner method, browser, device, conditions, catalog, Brave-list source and list count constant. The list snapshot may differ, so these are not Shields or detector changes. Differences can still reflect site experiments, ad rotation, caching or bot detection.
