+// The atlas re-derives itself from the shard's ServUO tree on every boot, so

+//
+//   • point it at a different tree,
+//   • apply a map change without restarting, and
+//   • answer a refresh that was parsed but deliberately NOT applied because it
+//     would remove a facet.
+//
+// That last one is the reason the panel is worth building. Losing a facet looks
+// exactly like a half-copied or mid-update tree, and boot cannot tell them
+// apart — so it stages the decision for a human instead of guessing. Until
+// someone decides here, the site keeps serving the atlas it already had.
+
+// A refresh reports its outcome rather than throwing (the boot path must never
+// be stopped by a bad tree), so these are answers, not errors — the panel says
+// what happened in the shard's terms instead of showing a failure box.

+//     publishes only the first N, and saying so beats presenting a partial shop
+//     as complete.
+//   • **An item may have no name.** On a shard whose operator has not converted
+//     a cliloc table, `displayName` is null and the honest render is the item id
+//     — not an invented name.
+//

+//   1. **It never blocks startup.** No configured path, an unreadable file, a

+//      comes up either way, serving whatever table it already had (or none, in
+//      which case the UI falls back to item ids exactly as it did before).
+//   2. **Nothing client-derived is committed.** The table is built from the
+//      operator's own file at a configured path. The repo ships no strings.
+//
+// The table is built from a SET of sources — the converted client table plus
+// every operator-maintained overlay beside it — because shards edit items and
+// add new ones, and those carry cliloc ids no stock client table has. All of
+// them are re-read on every boot and hash-gated together, so adding one custom
+// item never means re-exporting a 5 MB client file. Later sources win.
+//
+// That set is also why this has the atlas's escalation, in a lighter form. A
+// single corrupt file fails the parse loudly, but a source that has simply
+// VANISHED parses perfectly and imports a table quietly missing everything it
+// contributed — the same ambiguity (real change vs half-copied mount) the atlas
+// stages a facet removal for. So a disappearing source is refused and reported
+// rather than applied.
+//
+// It is lighter than the atlas's because it needs to be: the atlas stores a
+// pending decision in its own table and adds approve/reject endpoints, whereas
