Reviewer note: Document sha256: d933d92d0e7a6878ccb015d402cfd0473e14f93a6495b9ab022e4850c18053b1 (54387 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.
