**What it does not test.** Does not establish that any Italian user has yet run a workload on the system; formal inauguration follows on 16 October.

**How this item counts.** Towards dependence: it changes who made the parts. Binding 3 of 3 (in force or operating), scale 2 of 3 (medium), Reported counts half: weight -3 of 36 possible.
