Reviewer note: Document sha256: a68fb2c3a2c7aafe3557074c7e60d88b5d677f63480ee44a29f25502641a5697 (72866 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.
