REVIEWED-128/129 placed by the steward; draft superseded in place, placement verified

Verified rather than assumed: both blocks are whitespace-normalised identical to what was placed, 4,230 and 5,378 characters on both sides. The placed text differs only in line wrapping, which an editor re-flowed. Checked because 'drafted, then placed' is exactly where a ruling's subject and its artifact drift apart, and this record already carries that class recurring inside a ruling. The draft is SUPERSEDED IN PLACE, not deleted: it is now a parallel version of a canonical record, and an unmarked parallel version is the context-rot failure. It points at REVIEWED.md and says not to edit it — and says explicitly that 129's Decision line was blank here and is filled there, so a reader who comes to this file for the decision knows it does not have it. Citations wired both ways so the register is navigable from the items rather than only from the rulings.
