Reviewer note: Document sha256: cce570b230c347c21229f7e0f8b82d419965fcad8607debe34e67df47a110824 (59826 bytes). BenchPath harvested this circuit itself because no research corpus existed for it. Extraction is conservative: mandatory-language sentences only, so this rule is a faithful subset of the order, never a summary of it.
