**Probes (same dataset, same geo/month window, one query parameter changed):**
1. `GET https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/api/dissemination/statistics/1.0/data/une_rt_m?format=JSON&geo=ES&sex=T&age=TOTAL&unit=PC_ACT&s_adj=SA&sinceTimePeriod=2026-01` → HTTP 200, values by month: `{2026-01: 10.3, 2026-02: 10.3, 2026-03: 10.3, 2026-04: 10.2, 2026-05: 10.2, 2026-06: 10.1, 2026-07: 10.0, 2026-08: 10.0}` (percent of active population, seasonally adjusted)
2. Same URL with `s_adj=NSA` → HTTP 200, values: `{2026-01: 10.7, 2026-02: 11.0, 2026-03: 10.9, 2026-04: 10.2, 2026-05: 9.8, 2026-06: 9.6, 2026-07: 9.8, 2026-08: 10.0}` (not seasonally adjusted)

**Observed shape:** the dataset carries both series side by side; nothing in the response defaults one over the other, and there is no `s_adj` value that returns "both" — a caller must already know to ask for a specific adjustment or will silently get only one of the two Spain unemployment rates for a given month.

How observed: 2026-10-12T21:00:00Z–21:01:00Z, curl 8, GET only, keyless, default User-Agent.
