What has been preserved
The main gallery shows one canonical icon from each known family. The archive keeps the other copies and variants too.

About the numbers
Canonical icons and stored files are different counts
A canonical icon is the copy selected for the main wall when the archive knows that several files belong to the same visual family. The stored-file count includes those display copies plus retained duplicates and variants. That is why a complete preservation download contains more files than the gallery headline.
The census is the public summary. Queue depths, enrichment versions, moderation stages, model failures, processing time, and token use live in the conservation workbench, where the machinery may make as much noise as it likes.
