Markets and sources are not the same thing. A formula is checked against 11 markets. The sources above are broader: hazard and assessment bodies such as SCCS, IARC, CIR and ECHA feed those verdicts without being markets themselves.
Every verdict carries the annex or regulation it came from, so an answer can be traced back to the row above it rather than taken on trust.
