The hash covers the results file's RAW BYTES as read, not a canonical form, so reproducing it requires the byte-identical original — reformatting or re-serializing the source changes the value. Only the most recent pre-application state is recorded: applying amendments to an already-amended document REPLACES this value, so it is a single link back one step, not a growing chain.
