-- there's some annoying issues responsible for this code (if it weren't for this then just use _pageData gg & this table doesn't exist period)
-- cargo ignores special characters unless you use BINARY so when i deleted the BINARY conditions, the special characters became a liability
-- lua can't check special-character-agnostic string equality natively
-- so i'll rely on cargo's storing bug where it only stores an equivalent-up-to-case-and-special-character-substitution set of rows one time
-- so here we re-store so it's unable to tell the difference between actually-different rows
-- this code needs to be invoked as the VERY FIRST THING on any page that has it, so it's available immediately to the rest of the page.

-- this code used to be part of Module:InfoboxUtil until Nov 2019
