 ## Correction and Concurrency Invariants
 
+- Module focus guides proposal generation; it is not an exclusive acceptance
+  boundary. Validators permit otherwise acceptable minor editorial cleanup even

+  rationale and rejected strict-scope alternative.

 - Validate corrections before final mutation, including local proposal checks,
