merge_region_excludes_shared_tail records two specimens, both roster rows, and prescribes one
repair: make the appended unit a single line so the shared suffix carries nothing. A third instance
this session is outside that repair, and the row should say so rather than leave the next reader
to rediscover it.

The severed unit was a function both branches had edited, not an appended row. The conflict
boundary cut through the body, so one side ended mid-function and the other side's closing braces sat
below the >>>>>>> marker; replacing the first side with a complete, correctly-braced version left
those closers stapled after it. No markers, git satisfied, file structurally broken — pushed, then
repaired one commit later.

A roster row can be collapsed to one line. A function body cannot, and neither can a type with arms.
So the stated repair covers the append case and leaves the edit case exactly as exposed —
while the row's recognition rule asks what suffix appended units share, and this specimen had no
append at all. Same generator, wider population than the repair.

Two mechanism notes, both measured rather than reasoned:

A whole-file brace count is useless here — two errors of opposite sign cancel, so a broken file
reads as balanced. What discriminates is a running per-line depth reporting the first negative,
with string literals stripped because citation prose contains braces. And it must run against the
pre-merge version of the same file as a control: 0 on the carrier, -2 on the resolution, which is
what made the defect attributable rather than merely present.

The compile already subsumes that counter, which moves the gap from detection to reachability.
An orphan-brace resolution is a parse refusal naming file and line; the counter yields a number
needing a control. What a compile does not reach is a test module, because nothing imports a test —
a probe importing one declaration from each module under test verifies all of them and never opens
the witness file, which is exactly where the braces landed. The gap is an unreachable population,
not a missing analysis, and it is the same shape as the coverage module that could not compile
because nothing imported it. Remedy: name the test file as its own --entry.

Receipts added to the existing row rather than a new one. Specimens from silent-heron-303 and
keen-newt-324.

…-by-hunk

The carrier landed on main as #10863 with #10872 and #10873 on top, so the
two files this branch shares with it became add/add conflicts: 20 hunks
across four files. Resolved by taking MAIN's version of each file whole and
re-applying only this branch's additions, rather than adjudicating hunks -
hand hunk-resolution has already cost this branch two parse defects, and a
conflict boundary that cuts through a declaration is what produced both.

What that discipline caught: main's witness had gained an entire ceiling
API - cabinet_density_air_ceiling, CabinetPowerCeiling, CeilingAt,
ceiling_refuses, two helper fns and the test
w_absent_ceiling_refuses_nothing_and_a_real_one_does - none of which exists
on this branch. Taking my side of that file would have silently deleted a
test and its carrier. Verified by identity rather than by eye: all 9 of
main's test fns are present in the merged file, plus 1 of mine, and the
ceiling API appears 15 times.

Main also adopted all(census_regions, ...) where I had written
filter(...).length() == 0. Main's is the better idiom and is kept.

Per file: types.dag is byte-identical to main (never edited here);
databank.dag is main's plus the EWR1 Newark rows; colo_census_coverage.dag
is this branch's derived-count version, which is a strict superset of main's
- main's only unique content is the two Int fields my change replaces and a
paragraph describing them as "already in flight", now obsolete; the witness
is main's with the read-count accessor, the corrected vacuous arm, and the
two-claim fixture applied on top. Main's predicate destructured
FacilitiesModelled's Int fields and could not have compiled against the
derived arm, so replacing it was forced rather than preferred.

Structural check over all 24 touched files reports zero defects.
