Research direction
Open visualizations_demographics/astropy_status_plots.py and inspect get_first_commit_map, starting by reproducing the shown difference between the expected and actual author keys. Trace where the trailing quote enters the author name, then verify that the resulting map uses the unquoted author name while retaining the datetime value.
