Both blockers cleared; F5 fully cleared and independently verified by mutation. Two new findings: R1, the remedy for F4 has no validator guard and can be deleted or blanked with CI still green, reproducing one block over the prose-not-structure defect that F5 described; R2, the new appointment gate is satisfiable by the party it gates, since approved_by principal is a self-written string. R3 notes asymmetric negative coverage. Evidence is a filed mutation probe: 7 cases, 2 killed, 5 survived. Principal dispositions on F1-F6 and on R1-R2 remain outstanding.",
