53 A child template contains visible HTML before {% extends "base.html" %}. What is the correct diagnosis under Django template inheritance rules?

54 A base template defines {% block title %}Default{% endblock %}. A child overrides it with {% block title %}Report | {{ block.super }}{% endblock %}. What does the child render for that block?

55 A child template attempts to define two blocks named content at the same inheritance level because the base appears to use that block in two places. Why is this invalid?
