Condition not relevant; imperfecto?Los cuadros estuvieron en el museo.The paintings were in the museum. (We are describing a situation where the condition is either no longer true or not relevant.)
The problem with saying 'either no longer true or not relevant' here creates a grey area because normally if we understand a condition to not be relevant, we would use the imperfecto, surely? See the first question in the quiz for example.

Imperfect for present or future.

When I read into this, I found it a little confusing, we would actually say, he was meeting the lawyer tomorrow, to mean, He is meeting the lawyer tomorrow.

I think we say it as it was a decision taken before the present or the future. So for once a literal translation would work?
