Why 92/100, and not 100?
The points below are not taken away from Vahn Balabanian: they are simply not yet awarded, for lack of a public source to verify them. Payotte estimates nothing and invents nothing.
- No verifiable distinction found (industry award, press citation, teaching role). Absence of evidence, not evidence of absence.
- Local presence in Downtown Brampton not confirmed. No public source proves how many files were closed in this specific sector — only the professional holds that figure.
