In article <87zidu301h.fsf@hobgoblin.ariadne.com> you write:

Fair enough, although we could have quite the rabbit hole trying to
figure out how much fuzz between the DOI bibliographic stuff and
the document you want to tolerate.  In theory they're identical,
in practice things like authors' initials might not match.

R's,
