Records #173 to #177 in the living document, along with why those five and not
five more of what came before.

The reasoning worth keeping

Positive rule coverage is finished, so more "cover rule X" issues would be
busywork. The measured gap is the other direction: only 3 of the 21 scenarios are
negative controls, while every correctness fix this project has shipped was a false
positive or a spec mismatch (#127, #128, #155, #154, #156). #155 alone found the
transition rule flagging 22 transitions the section 4.9 table permits, with nothing
in the corpus to notice. #173 to #175 are that guard.

Recorded

Verification

Every claim in the diff was checked against the tree and GitHub rather than written
from memory: the three negative-control filenames, registry length 21, the
good-first-issue count of 6, #177's labels, 025 being unused, the react module at
388 lines, and coverage-v8 being absent from package.json.

Confirmed the edits did not disturb the automation that parses this file: the script
still no-ops at 0.4.7 without duplicating the log entry, and its 9 unit tests
pass. pnpm format:check passes.

Documentation only, no changeset.

Records #173 to #177 and the reasoning behind them. With positive rule coverage
finished, more "cover rule X" issues would be busywork, so the backlog was refilled
against a measured gap: only 3 of 21 scenarios are negative controls, while every
correctness fix this project has shipped was a false positive or a spec mismatch.

Also updates the station ID allocation, where 022, 023 and 024 are now reserved and
the next free number is 025.

Notes that #177 is deliberately not a good-first-issue, since the DOM environment
and component-testing approach are maintainer decisions, and that the traces in the
three scenario issues were run against the detection engine before publishing.
