ADOPTED

Escapes 12 (exp52 -> exp53): PLACEMENT BREAK of the pocket seesaw – R49+R50 moved SW as a unit (-6,-5.5) into the open field south of the FBX web (one GND stitch ripped); HV_R31B re-join and HV_FBX direct hop to the web both landed. HV_RAW via refused on TP_HV stub proximity; FBX dive re-site refused by HV_VC web (restored in batch 13); HV_SS west leg refused on FBX stub – its U10 seal is geometric, mechanism named in notes.
