 This is an update to the CRAN release `phontrast` 2.3.1.
 
-Version 2.4.0 is being submitted three days after 2.3.1 because it corrects
-release metadata that users currently see: the GitHub 2.4.0 tag initially
-retained `Version: 2.3.1`, and the package citation remained frozen at version
-2.0.0. The tag, package version, NEWS, version-specific Zenodo DOI, and
-version-aware package citation are now consistent.
+Version 2.4.0 corrects public release metadata and adds one opt-in feature.

+If this update arrives close enough to 2.3.1 to trigger the

 ## Changes

 - Corrected the package version metadata to 2.4.0.
 - Replaced the stale citation with a version-aware citation for Grant M. Berry
   and the 2.4.0 Zenodo DOI <doi:10.5281/zenodo.21864533>.
