+// ★ THE SAME SCOPE BUG, A SECOND TIME — now in the OTHER half of the list (2026-09-22).
+// The note above records fixing plugin-designs/ by recursing instead of globbing one level. But
+// `library/` stayed a hand-written list of THREE .vue files, and 17 files under library/ carry a
+// useShadowStyles(`…`) literal. So a backtick inside a CSS comment in any of the other 14 — e.g.
+// library/components/hints/PinHint.vue — passed this gate AND passed check:sfc-parse, and would
+// have broken the build later with the far-away Babel error this script exists to replace.
+// MEASURED: injecting `LICENCE \`obligation\`` into PinHint.vue's literal left both gates green.
+//
+// A hand-maintained file list decays silently, because nothing tells you when a new file should
+// have been added to it. That is what makes this class worse than a wrong rule: the rule was
+// always right, and it was simply never shown the file. Walk the tree instead, so coverage is a
+// consequence of where code lives rather than of someone remembering.
