Max depth discrepancy: 298 m vs 304 m
The article gives two different figures for the maximum depth of the Dead Sea. The infobox lists the maximum depth as 298 m, while the opening paragraph states "It is 304 m deep." The 6-metre gap (~2%) is not explained anywhere in the text, and neither figure is marked as from a specific named survey or a particular year. These figures are presented as simultaneous, current measurements of the same quantity. Could someone clarify which figure is correct and ensure consistency throughout the article?
