What building it taught us

The connector's own docstring, verbatim. It lives beside the code so it cannot drift from it.

Chile national CPI from INE's official open-data catalogue.

INE publishes keyless semicolon-delimited files with the full source hierarchy, published index levels, month-on-month and year-on-year rates, and basket weights. The 2013, 2018, and 2023 classifications are separate series families: no base or taxonomy is silently spliced across a redesign.
