Reviewer note: Document sha256: c5d17c5495e802484152d7c3a1f783d78a30ece9fbf7b4dde5bc2b44e0635f1a (4914734 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.
