One cannot transfer a better title to goods than one actually holds.
The buyer got nothing under nemo dat because the seller had stolen the painting.
Rarity runs from 0 (a word everyone knows) to 100 (almost never seen outside specialist or literary writing). Level is the word's real difficulty on the CEFR scale, from A1 to C2.
