Reviewer note: Document sha256: 3846f4c60dd5de11e5bf804c4a325d0276db8d97280832a66cbf23485d0eb4b7 (122559 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.
