Author christmas-octave-sunday's own Benedictus antiphon
Deploy / deploy (push) Successful in 52s

Corrects the previous conclusion (that this id had no clean sourceable
date at all). The reference engine has a dedicated proper for this
Sunday, Tempora/Nat1-0, distinct from the individual octave-day saints'
own pages -- most years the Sunday loses outright to a Duplex-II-classis
octave saint (St. Stephen/St. John/Holy Innocents) and only earns a bare
commemoration, which is what the earlier search kept finding, but
2029-12-30 is a year where the Sunday wins outright with no
commemoration at all, so that's the date pulled from.

All 52 temporal ids (54 counting marian-saturday/christ-the-king) now
have an authored Benedictus antiphon, closing out the temporal half of
the "every sanctoral and temporal entry needs its antiphons" task for
real.

# Verified against Divinum Officium (Monastic Tridentinum 1617), Lauds
# live query, 2029-12-30 -- the Sunday within the Octave of Christmas,
# found via the reference engine's own dedicated Tempora/Nat1-0 proper
# (its actual identity in the reference engine, distinct from any of the
# individual octave-day saints' own pages, e.g. Nat02/Nat03/Nat04 for
# Dec 26/27/28). This particular date was picked because it's the one
# clean case in range where the Sunday actually wins outright with no
# saint commemorated at all ("Dominica Infra Octavam Nativitatis ~
# Semiduplex Dominica minor", no Commemoratio line) -- on most years the
# Sunday instead falls on one of the Duplex-II-classis octave-day feasts
# (St. Stephen, St. John, Holy Innocents) and is itself only commemorated,
# which is what earlier searches this session kept running into and
# concluded (wrongly) meant there was no clean date at all.
