What changed

  • Field relocation to table extension is not a deletion and requires no obsoletion
  • Event parameter addition does not break subscribers that bind by subset matching
  • Both guards use negative-clarification format to suppress false positives
  • Scope limited to contract axis; data migration findings remain unmasked
  • Complements existing event parameter validation rules
