ADOPTED

ULPI fanout heal round 1 (exp60 -> exp61): D0, D1, D4, D6, D7, NXT CONNECTED in the new geometry (audit 65 -> 59 nets). Residue: single U7 pads D2/D3/D5/DIR/CK/STP/RST sealed at heal’s first move (fanout-order problem) – round 2 stubs them by hand first, then heals. Violations 71 -> 81 from heal grazes, violation campaign queued.
