How would you word it? Key pts are 1) Cassini made repeated observations, establishing that the spot was a lasting feature and 2) a gap started in 1713. Did not want to imply that Cassini made the last observation from the beyond the grave.

allows Bob and Tim to miss Lakers games, but it's false if Bob actually left the Lakers in 2003 or died. (2/2)
If Cassini is not required to be at all observations, why is he required to be at the last one? If he hadn’t died, would this still bother you? He’s sleeping! Resting! Stunned!

Well, suppose that I said "Cassini and his wife ran in the Boston Marathon until 2018." That's not inconsistent with missing a marathon in 2006, but if Cassini *stopped* running marathons in 2008 or even 2017 it wouldn't be true.

“Cassini and others broke time records in the Boston Marathon each year until 1983. (Cassini retired in 1982.)”
