No `WAT*` product carries a `Valid To` / `Now Valid Until` / `End Time` line, so `validTo` is `null` on every Watch and the elapsed-`validTo` check short-circuits to \"in force\". Three wrong answers follow:\n\n1. **Cancelled…",

The tool reads only the nearest grid cell, so it answers the overhead question only.
