ERD, about a decade ago I was building up a set of wheels, the ERD for the rim was different on the manufacturers website than the number listed on the rim. I contacted the rim manufacturer (at that time Salsa made rims) to get the correct ERD. I was happy that I double checked sources.

If I am buying spokes for a wheel build as individual spokes, I always buy two extra per wheel for spares, I mention that because you said you had 36 spokes. I would have had 38 spokes of the wrong length. You got lucky in one way, if it was me I would have bought the spokes for both wheels on one order.
