+ * the resolver can run in shadow/forced mode, while production default
+ * stays on the legacy DAG until registry-primary parity reaches the
+ * RFC threshold. Forced mode currently passes 154/175 fixtures (88%),
+ * including core import, receiver, companion, default-param, vararg,
+ * constructor, local assignment-chain, and collection-iteration fixtures.
+ * Remaining gaps are advanced TypeEnv behaviors such as smart casts,
+ * cross-file iterable return propagation, method-chain fixpoint cases,
+ * overload target-id selection, virtual dispatch, and interface default
+ * method dispatch.
