Correction after re-verification. Re-verification found the cited source does support this claim. The earlier withdrawal was made in error and has been reversed. Both segments of the attributed quote appear verbatim in the source, with only the ellipsis eliding the phrase "without naming the tenant" and quote-mark style differing.
