Why this meaning was chosen

Reviewed all nine 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 retains inward deviation from guidance, departure from a command, causation of that deviation, and visual displacement of the eyes. Moral and optical objects differ, but both preserve movement off the established line; Quran-internal context requires no collision.
