Stitches the TESS 2-minute light curves from Sectors 14, 15, 41, 54 and 55 (July 2019 to September 2022). After biweight detrending (window about 0.56 days) the scatter is 0.24 per cent; no dips deeper than 0.5 per cent at durations of 0.2 to 5 days, no box-least-squares peak above 0.41 per cent for periods of 6 to 50 days, and no analogue of the 2017 dips.
