Reviewer note: Document sha256: 3f1753a048ab21ed8599326cde4d81f69c3d0aa7d8317414681a722c642f18d2 (118477 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.
