   * Found by `claims-auditor`. It
   * says **nothing** about ADRIC's or ADRIO's renewal period. An earlier form of
   * this comment read "Both the OBA sections and the Canadian Tax Foundation
   * renew yearly, so every line below is a fact with a shelf life", which is two

   * "renewed annually", no "current as of", no "listed as current", no stamp
   * date in the markup. Pouya's ruling: *"List the memberships; promise nothing
   * about their future state. The list is a snapshot, and only §4's stamp says
   * when it was taken."* He declined renewal-date tracking, so there is no date
   * behind such a sentence and nothing in this repo could support one.
   *
   * R10 stays live and now fires on an **event** rather than a date: re-confirm
   * before any cutover or major republish. OCNI is why — §4 carries it as lapsed
   * and unpublishable, and that was found roughly a year late.

 * two halves — *"Director of Firm Operations, Toronto litigation and ADR
 * boutique"* — and visible copy always pairs them. The JSON-LD emitted only the
 * first half, on a `Person` whose `url` is this practice's `/about/`, so a
 * consumer could attach the boutique title to this entity. `worksFor` could not
 * fix it, because D16 bars naming the boutique and there was no value it could
 * take.
 *
 * His ruling breaks the bind by changing what the field is about: *"jobTitle
 * describes this practice, not the boutique role, which D16 keeps unnamed"* —
 * and that half holds: this constant names no boutique.
 *
 * **THE `worksFor` HALF OF THE RULING IS NOT IMPLEMENTED — Q49(b).** This
 * paragraph said *"`worksFor` becomes SML Company Ltd — verified, federally
 * incorporated, and the entity the practice operates through. Both are set"*.
 * Two defects, both found by `claims-auditor` on re-audit: **"Both are set" is
 * false** (reverted the same day), and *"the entity the practice operates
 * through"* was listed inside a run of verified attributes when **§4 rows only
 * "Operator of SML Company Ltd. `alongside` the practice"** — a different
 * structural relation, and precisely what Q49(b) is open on. Do not restate the
 * ruling's phrasing as though the register carried it.
 *
 * ⚠️ **IT SHIPPED FOR ONE PASS AS "Mediator and Commercial Arbitrator" AND THAT
 * WAS WRONG FOR A REASON I HAD NOT SEEN.** Both review agents found it
 * independently on 2026-08-28, which is this loop's strongest signal.
 *
 * The string `claims-auditor` struck from **this same node's `description`** on
 * 2026-08-27 was *"Mediator and commercial arbitrator in Toronto"*. The value
 * ruled for `jobTitle` is the same words minus the city — **in the most
 * role-asserting field in the vocabulary**, thirty lines below the comment in
 * `schema.ts` that explains why the words were struck. §4 verifies *"Has
 * completed multiple sole mediations"* and has **no counterpart row for a
 * completed arbitration** — only that appointments are *accepted*. Consumers
 * render `jobTitle` beside `name`: *Pouya Lajevardi — Mediator and Commercial
 * Arbitrator*, which invites the reader to supply a track record for both halves.
 *
 * **I flagged the wrong thing.** My note argued about scoping ("Commercial"),
 * and neither the note nor I noticed the whole string had already been struck on
 * different grounds. A flag aimed at the wrong defect reads as diligence and
 * provides none.
 *
 * **So this ships as the narrowest form §4 actually rows**, and Q47's purpose is
 * still served: Pouya's ruling was that `jobTitle` describe *this practice*
 * rather than the boutique role, and "Mediator" does exactly that. Nothing is
 * lost from the graph — `description` ("accepting commercial arbitration
 * appointments") and `serviceType` ("Commercial arbitration") both carry the
 * arbitration **offering**, and both cleared audit. Only the role-assertion is
 * gone.
 *
 * **AGENTS.md Q49 asks Pouya for the row.** If he wants the fuller title it
 * needs either a §4 row for arbitrator-as-practised-role, or an offering-shaped
 * value — `adversarial-reviewer` proposed `'Mediator; accepts commercial
 * arbitration appointments'`, which is honest and reads oddly for a job title.
 * His call, not one to take by tidying.

 * one the "name only, nothing else" scoping did **not** address: the
 * ProfessionalService node's `provider` **is** this Person, so
 * `provider → Person → worksFor → SML Company Ltd` asserts transitively exactly
 * what `src/pages/about.astro` declines to assert in prose — that the practice
 * and the company are the same entity. **The referent matters and the first
 * version of this sentence got it wrong:** it said "the comment four lines above
 * it", pointing at `aboutGraph`'s note in `schema.ts`, which covers
 * `ProfilePage`, `BreadcrumbList` and `memberOf` and says **nothing** about SML
 * Company Ltd. `adversarial-reviewer` read it and found the citation empty —
 * *"a claim whose referent cannot be reached is unverifiable by construction"*,

 * is `about.astro`'s deleted sentence: *"the company through which the
 * engineering work is done" — a corporate-structure claim.* The transitive
 * argument stands on its own; the evidence offered for it did not.
 *
 * Two further grounds, both recorded so this is not re-added casually:
 *   - §4's row says "Operator of SML Company Ltd **alongside** the practice".
 *     Q47's ruling says "the entity the practice **operates through**". Those are
 *     different structural relations and the second has no §4 row.
 *   - `/about/` already **removed** a sentence of this exact class from visible
 *     copy — see about.astro: *"the company through which the engineering work is
 *     done" — a corporate-structure claim*. Publishing it machine-readably while
 *     declining it in prose is the stricter-in-public, looser-in-metadata shape.
 *
 * The original omission had TWO grounds — "either names the boutique (D16) **or
 * misstates the employer**". Q47 answers the first. The second is Q49.
 *
 * `SITE.entity` already carries the string for the footer. Re-adding a second

     *
     *   - Rule 2.4: *"'Case Conference' has the same meaning as 'Pre-Hearing
     *     Conference' as defined in the SPPA."* **"Pre-hearing" is the
     *     Tribunal's own label**, and what it names is a case conference.
     *   - Rule 14.3: a **Member** presides, and is then disqualified from the
     *     hearing panel. Rule 14.6: parties must attend. The neutral is the
     *     Tribunal's, and a privately retained one cannot be appointed to it.
     *   - The Rules contain **zero** occurrences of `mediat` or `arbitrat`
     *     (0 in 66,593 characters). The concept is not in them.
     *
     * The interim read "private mediation of matters before the LAT", which is
     * ambiguous in the one word that matters: `before` reads as *pending at* as
     * easily as *prior to*. Replaced with the temporal frame the Tribunal's own
     * page endorses — *"you may want to consider negotiation or mediation
     * services... before filing at the LAT-AABS, and continuing... after a
     * claim has been filed."*
     *
     * `/practice/insurance/` at step 5 must say the mediation is PRIVATE and is
     * not the Tribunal's case conference.

/**
 * The five process steps. **HERE, NOT IN THE PAGE**, for the reason written
 * against PRACTICE_AREAS above and applied by `adversarial-reviewer` 2026-08-27:
 * `/` renders a compressed strip of these and `/process/` renders them in full
 * at build step 6, so a copy typed into one page is a copy that will eventually
 * disagree with the other. The proof is already in the history — the step-3 body
 * below carried a fee claim that the same session's claims audit found to be
 * wrong against `docs/07`, and it existed in exactly one place. After step 6 it
 * would have existed in two.
 *
 * TIMINGS ARE `docs/01` §`/process/`'s, verbatim: "confidential intake (day 0) ·
 * engagement and framing (1–7) · pre-session exchange (7–21) · the session
 * (21–30) · binding conclusion (30+)".
 *
 * **Q43 CLOSED 2026-08-27, and the ruling went the other way from this
 * comment's previous reasoning.** It read: *"`docs/03` §Process requires them
 * REAL rather than illustrative, so they are not softened to 'typically'."*
 * Pouya ruled that the five timings are **service commitments, the same class
 * as Q27's response time** — not facts about him, so they need framing rather
 * than a Verified row:
 *
 *   "Present them as the TYPICAL shape of an engagement, explicitly not a
 *    guarantee: mediation timing depends on party and counsel availability,
 *    which he does not control. Published as typical, they are honest and
 *    useful; published as commitments, the first matter that slips makes the
 *    page false."
 *
 * The NUMBERS ARE UNCHANGED — softening was never the fix, and inventing them
 * was never on. What changed is that they now ship with `PROCESS_FRAMING`
 * below, which is **not optional**: any page rendering these steps renders it
 * too. `docs/03` §Process has been amended to record the override.
 *
 * Step 5 is labelled from the spec but its body says what actually concludes —
 * minutes of settlement in a mediation, an award where the process is arbitral.
 * "Binding conclusion" alone would read as though a mediation binds, which it
 * does not until the parties sign.
 *
 * NO FEE CLAIM IN ANY BODY. `docs/07` bundles a CAPPED preparation allowance
 * (2 h in the half day, 3 h in the full day) and says in terms that it "must be
 * stated on the page... Do not quietly fold it into the hours figure." A
 * five-word strip cannot state it properly, and stating it improperly
 * misdescribes money. `/fees/` at step 9.
