The province table and the map's province layer both read gb-IND-ADM1.geojson,
which is the UPG-100 list's curated 34-unit partition — not a country's states.
Eleven groups came out with no province because they were standing in states that
partition does not draw. Both now read the complete ADM1 that landed with the
internet work (36 states, geoBoundaries via DataMeet India): 998 assigned becomes
1,005, 44 province rows become 46, and the rows name Indian states.
Four groups are still unassigned and each one is legible: Great Andamanese and the
Sentinelese sit on islands whose simplified coastline their point falls just
outside, and Jing and Pana are on China's Vietnam and Laos borders, outside its
twelve-province subset. They are listed with their coordinates, not dropped.
The staged-assets gate now also asserts the map and the table read the SAME
geometry. Staging could never catch this: both files were staged.
P1 rendering. Opening India or China now draws its provinces, coloured by the
same ladder as the country beneath them, and tapping one gives its groups, its
people, how many have nothing, the largest of those and the way in.
It arrives on intent rather than on load. India's ADM1 geometry is 1,628 KB —
nearly the size of the whole world ADM0 file — on a leaf that already loads about
4 MB and is meant to be embedded on thousands of partner sites. Loading it for
the 173 countries nobody is looking at would tax every reader for the benefit of
two. Opening one of the two IS the signal; China is 54 KB, and both are cached
after the first open.
The counts come from the measured table, never recomputed in the leaf. The
point-in-polygon belongs in the build, and a second implementation here is how
two surfaces come to disagree. Provinces repaint when the mode changes, because a
country saying one thing while the province on top of it says another is worse
than having no provinces at all.
The panel repeats that placement is approximate, and that the way in was chosen
for the COUNTRY — which is exactly the limitation going below the border exposed.
Also fixes the gate I added for this, twice. The province fetch interpolates its
filename, so the parse captured the literal prefix "boundaries/" — a real
directory of 4,096 bytes that always exists, proving nothing. The first fix
expanded that prefix against the filesystem, which was worse: unstaging a real
geojson simply shortened the list and the gate stayed green on nine assets
instead of ten, exit 0. The expectation now comes from the filenames the leaf
names, so a file the map asks for and the tree lacks fails. Poison-tested both
ways.
The gospel-only dev-assets check is gone in favour of the shared one, which is
better at the job: it tests the /__leaf/<bundle>/<profile> prefix — the one that
actually broke — across all seven map bundles, and confirms each leaf hands its
element the base it claims. The gospel version never looked at that prefix, so
keeping both would have meant two implementations and the weaker one still green
while the map was broken.
What the shared gate samples is the POOL, the files every map shares. It cannot
know this leaf also fetches gospel tables by name, so a table that stopped being
staged would leave it green and this map fetching a 404. That is the only gap
left, and this covers exactly it.
The wanted list is parsed out of resources-map.vue rather than written down,
which immediately earned itself: the hand-written list it replaces was already
two short — pray-index and gospel-link-verification were being fetched and were
not in it. A list maintained by hand is the field-list-goes-stale bug, and this
bundle has produced that three times in one day.
Poison-tested by unstaging a real table: FAIL, exit 1, then restored.
