Slot: Dataset & Provenance (dataset_and_provenance)

Where the values live and come from — the companion file's column layout, the upstream product, and the exact tool runs that produced the values.

Why this slot matters

Collects the record's pointers to the physical data (column bindings) and its computational history (upstream product, tool runs) in one place, so reproducibility and file-mechanics questions are answered together rather than scattered among the scientific fields.

In plain terms

This section answers two practical questions: where exactly are the numbers (which columns of which companion file), and where did they come from (which upstream dataset, and which software runs produced them)?
