Reviewer note: Document sha256: bc1c24bc98860cc751f15b21e6a3dbdce06d412ec1029d73a9098a2452f85903 (126436 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.
