Freeze-bomb three-bomb use: 45 minutes freeze vs 15-minutes-per-bomb rule
x_p5_229 conflictf_b05_155 records that three freeze-bombs thrown simultaneously froze the class for 45 minutes, which is consistent with the simultaneous-use multiplier rule in f_al1_131 and f_b11_045 (15 min x 3 = 45 min); however f_b05_047 (and its glossary source) does not mention the multiplier, presenting the duration as simply 'exactly 15 minutes' without qualification, creating a potential conflict between the in-chapter 45-minute outcome and the unqualified single-bomb rule stated in the same book's glossary.

Evidence
| b05 glossary states duration as a flat 15 minutes with no multiplier noted | these weapons freeze everything within 50 metres of the explosion. The effect lasts exactly 15 minutes. | b05:c99:p229 |
| b05 chapter event shows three bombs producing 45 minutes (3 x 15) | I took three freeze-bombs out of my backpack and gave one to Greta and one to Rob. We removed the pins, and threw them. This froze the class and gave us 45 minutes to get back to the castle. | b05:c06:p141 |
extraction note The multiplier rule is explicit in al1 and b11/b13, but the b05 glossary omits it, meaning a reader of b05 in isolation sees a flat 15-minute rule contradicted by the 45-minute outcome in the same volume. Flagged as a conflict for author review.
