A Commerce cell is not a port ledger
$375,902,113.59 does not measure port throughput, named shipyards, or weather-station counts. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 013 and an RI place-of-performance tag.
Do not treat 210 awards as a census of port throughput, named shipyards, or weather-station counts. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Rhode Island federal spending or Department of Commerce matched $375,902,113.59 and 210, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighboring-state Commerce joins are other pairs, not addends.
