PENDING-139 re-measured: leg (A) is repaired, leg (B) is live

The re-measurement lived only in commit 12ca031s message while the item read as live on
both legs — so the next ruling on it would have authorized repairing a repaired defect.
That is this weeks own finding sitting on the next item due for a ruling.

Additive only: nothing above the note is altered, so this is not the placed-record
normalization REVIEWED-132 §6 reserves to a dated steward act.

@@ -1692,6 +1692,22 @@ So **PENDING-138 and this entry are worded to avoid the bare uppercase token**,
**Files affected:** `~/dotfiles/scripts/governance-drift-check.py` — `RE_HEAD`, `RE_BUILT`, the register and built-vs-ruled checks, and their controls.
⚠ **RE-MEASURED 2026-09-06 — ADDITIVE NOTE, NOTHING ABOVE IS REWRITTEN.** The item's text stands as filed and
was true when measured. Against the substrate today the two legs have diverged and the item **must not be ruled
as filed**:
- **Leg (A) — REPAIRED.** `RE_HEAD_LINE` is `^#{2,3}\s+(.*)$`, so a `###`-level amendment heading IS seen and
classifies `id+marker`, identically to `##`. Verified by running `_classify` on both forms. **Ruling (A) as
filed would authorize repairing a repaired defect.**
- **Leg (B) — STILL LIVE.** `RE_BUILT = re.compile(r"\bBUILT\b")` at `governance-drift-check.py:774` fires on
`NOT BUILT`, `NOT YET BUILT` and `the mechanism is NOT BUILT`. Verified by running the pattern on each.
- ⚠ The `·` form the item also names is **worse than unseen**: it parses to `compound` with the identifier
mangled to a bare `REVIEWED`. Avoiding it is right; the stated reason is half-stale.
⚠ Filed here rather than left in commit `12ca031`'s message, per
[[feedback-a-dated-measurement-is-not-a-status]] — a re-measurement that lives only in a commit message is the
defect this note exists to prevent, one layer along. **Additive only:** no line above is altered, so this is not
the placed-record normalization REVIEWED-132 §6 reserves to a dated steward act.
**Awaiting:** Steward authorization. ⚠ Until then the register is worded around the defect (disclosed above), so the check's silence on it is an accommodation and not a pass.
