A minor correction: if the registry parameter "/reconciliation-mode" is set to 
"decrease maximum latency", then the time-offset value for requesting data will 
be decreased (e.g., from the default one hour to, say, 30 minutes) in order to 
ensure detection of duplicate data-products. Also, the latency threshold for 
rejecting a data-product will be reduced to this value, again to avoid 
duplicate data-products.

Good work figuring this one out!
