The legacy reconciler reported "nothing to change" and was confidently
wrong: its hasAny predicate never learned the two newest pools, so 122
curated rows — 8.9 million people — still carried heart_has_any=false
for groups the pin index can now reach. A reconciler that cannot see a
source is not reconciling, it is confirming.
Corrected exactly the 122 predicted, and the derived columns moved
with them: status 122, opportunity 93, lbc_carries_resource 69,
aligned 59, gap 29. Gap moves least because it means "nothing in the
heart language AND no in-country bridge either" — most of these have a
bridge, so they were already opportunities rather than gaps, and that
documented meaning is intact.
This was the fifth occurrence of one bug, and the gate written for it
had never looked at scripts — only .vue. Extending it to the build
scripts immediately found a sixth, in the Deaf gap table, which is
latent today because no sign language carries either field: GRN is
deliberately skipped for them and Scripture Earth has none. Fixed
while it is still cheap.
The rule now differs by file because the truth does: a surface must
READ the tier, while a build script COMPUTES it and cannot, so a
script must instead name every pool. Both halves verified against the
real pre-fix lines rather than synthetic ones.
