 # A dead-letter write failure is itself alarmed (both legs) but never aborts the

 # #920).

 # RETENTION IS LOAD-BEARING (#953) — read BEFORE adding rotation/pruning/caps:
 # this ledger is append-only history AND the SOLE evidence base for
 # store.sh quarantine-audit's conviction predicate (#946): a false
 # consumed-hashes witness row is provable ONLY while its matching entry
 # survives HERE. Any rotation, pruning, or size cap — however locally correct
 # — silently converts provable rows into unprovable ones, and the audit's
 # clean sweep reads IDENTICALLY before and after the evidence disappears (no
 # signal at either end; the audit never guesses, by design). If retention
 # limits ever become genuinely necessary, they MUST ship with (a) a loud
 # signal at prune time naming what evidence is being given up, and (b) the
 # audit's residual-class reporting updated IN THE SAME CHANGE. Until then:
 # nothing prunes this file, and that is a recorded decision, not an omission.
