Recommendation

Decision note

Rebuilt from the original export under the complete V412/V411 factual-source-verification workflow. Preview only. Apply remains blocked until Failures = 0, Warnings = 0, Unmapped = 0, Missing = 0; explicit clears are reviewed; image import is disabled; a representative WordPress edit screen is compared with the export and proposed row; and a post-Apply zero-change Preview succeeds.
