Summary

Rewords one near-term roadmap bullet to reflect what we learned checking the live API.

get_europepmc_fulltext was listed as the way to read preprint full text — but Europe PMC indexes preprints without exposing their full text as XML (its per-article fullTextXML route 404s even for open-access articles that have full text in the reader), and get_full_text already covers PMC open-access articles via NCBI. So the honest near-term item is get_preprint_fulltext, built on the bioRxiv/medRxiv APIs.

Docs-only — no code change.

Europe PMC indexes preprints but doesn't serve their full text as XML (verified
against the live API), and get_full_text already covers PMC open-access
articles. So the honest near-term item is get_preprint_fulltext built on the
bioRxiv/medRxiv APIs, not a Europe PMC full-text tool.
