Why this meaning was chosen

Reviewed all 33 frozen occurrences on the complete 100-item page. There are no protected records, compacted proposals, failure candidates, or aligned witness variants on the target rows. The one-core test joins direct provision against a need with the frequent construction that marks a person, thing, quality, or consequence as fully adequate in a stated role. The active participle at 39:36 states the same adequacy as a standing quality. No Quran-internal collision requires a separate core.
