The case-insensitive census with every plugin agent's name found 30 more lines: library (ProfileLoader,
useMapProvider, ApproxPinNote, listSelection, colocation), the gallery's embed-contract card id, the gospel
plugins' source notes and build scripts, a regions script note and one gate description. Comments and notes
only, except the Gospel x Internet CSV export's provenance line, which no longer names who screened the links.
dx-shepherd's ruling: the locale-honouring fallback everywhere, carrying the
Driver's goal (d) — a bare-host embed with ?lang=ar must render Arabic — now
recorded in COMMON.md as the embed contract.
all-people-groups passed its inline EN map as the fallback, which served ENGLISH to
exactly the hosts that cannot install vue-i18n: the seven bundles here that install
none. It now takes the catalogue default, so those readers get their own language
with English still the last resort. The EN map is deleted — with the catalogue
complete it could rescue nothing, and a second copy of the English is only a place
for the two to drift.
THE RULING'S CONDITION WAS MEASURED BEFORE THE SWITCH, not after: all eleven keys
exist in all eleven locales, and ar differs from en on 11 of 11, so the change is
observable rather than cosmetic.
★ AND THE CONDITION IS NOW KEPT TRUE RATHER THAN MEASURED ONCE. A hand census
protects the day it is taken. Section 9 of check:optional-t-equivalence re-derives
it every run, because with no local fallback an uncatalogued key renders as a raw
dotted path to a reader — the exact failure upg100 described, and the reason they
had advised keeping a fallback at all.
★ THAT CENSUS UNDER-COUNTED TWICE BEFORE IT WAS RIGHT, both caught by checking
instead of assuming:
- literal tr('key') extraction found 6 of 11. Four keys are category ids reached
only through tr(cat.id) / tr(c.id); the census now extracts the CATS ids too, and
asserts the dynamic call sites still look the way it assumes.
- the eleventh, 'pray', was lost to codeOnly: it sits in a template literal whose
`https://` was read as a line comment, because the scanner had already lost
template state further up a 1000-line SFC. The census now reads RAW source.
The asymmetry is the point — over-including a commented-out key makes the check
STRICTER (a cheap false red); under-including a real one makes it claim
completeness it does not have. strip-code.mjs carries that rule now, so the next
author picks raw or stripped for a reason rather than by habit.
All three files carried the same block byte-for-byte — enConnectivity + enLookup +
fill + try/catch — and now call useOptionalT('connectivity', { fallback: enLookup }).
English is unchanged on a bare host, because each passes its own enLookup rather
than taking the catalogue default.
gospel-plugin chose the catalogue default for their bundle, on the argument that a
partner host without vue-i18n is served English while the bundle already ships all
11 catalogues. The same one-word choice is open to cities-internet's owner; it is
not a migration's to take, so this preserves what they have.
Their local fill() used `k in params`, so the shared fillParams also removes a way
for these three to render the literal string "null" into a sentence.
Also records, in the stripper itself, the two things codeOnly does NOT strip —
CSS comments inside a JS template literal, and HTML comments in a .vue template.
Both have already cost a real measurement here: a specificity read of (0,5,53),
and a bare-useI18n census that read 3 where the code had 2. gospel-plugin's
generalisation is the one worth keeping: any <!-- --> that quotes an identifier
will keep doing that to you. The stripper must match the LANGUAGE of the text.
check:embedder-keys asserts regions-mfe forwards the documented embedder keys to its panes, and that
profile and instanceId are NOT forwarded (the host's would overwrite each pane's own and collapse both tabs
into one view). Negative-tested both ways: removing dataSource fails naming it; adding profile fails naming
the collapsed-tabs risk.
The gate lives in the plugin's scripts/ folder, as nine check: entries already do. Its comment stripper is
committed beside it (strip-code.mjs), because a committed gate cannot import from the gitignored QA folder.
Registered in scripts (alphabetical, with its //scripts note) and in gates:post; source-only, ~0.2s.
