Scope and evidence
Evaluated on page (P). The book marks this requirement SEARCH-ENGINE-SPECIFIC.
Observations
Each condition has a stable code and a reason template. The evaluator fills the placeholders from observed values only; no sentence in a report is generated.
near_limit{url} is {bytes} bytes uncompressed. Google states a 2MB limit without defining its byte count, so content after byte 2,000,000 may not be crawled.
Sources, quoted
These are the passages the rule rests on, stored once in the knowledge base and emitted exactly as written. A citation marked for specific conditions appears only on findings with those codes.
“Googlebot crawls the first 2MB of a supported file type, and the first 64MB of a PDF file.”
