ADOPTED

Escapes 11 (exp51 -> exp52): R50 shifted +1.14 east (fixes the batch-9 pad overlap with R31.2), HV_R31B re-join CONNECTED; FBX and HV_RAW vias refused by the CMP_QN B staircase / FBX In2 vertical (named blockers, batch 12 re-plans with a placement move); HV_SS In2 hop refused – its seal is geometric (one 1.0-class dive channel at U10 for two HV nets).
