False Recusal Afteruse Default

False Recusal Afteruse Default fires or arms when a future reader consumes a prior recusal row as current clean neutral authority after the proof row, reader, conflict, interest, or harmed reader has changed.

The event is not a generic legal-risk warning. It is the scar left when old neutrality becomes current reader authority.

Durable Mutation

At least one surface from each class must change:

• relief or capture: immediate_pressure_down, annex_unblocked, sponsor_package_unblocked, management_metric_greenwashed, or equivalent;
• cost or scar: false_neutral_authority_up, reader_conflict_heat_up, harmed_reader_hostility_up, archive_debt_up, public_receipt_distrust_up, or equivalent;
• future effect: rehearing_required, public_notice_due, lawful_annex_due, sponsor_unwind_due, route_costlier, blocked, hostile, or recovery_only.

The default fails if it silently approves the reader, clears the old conflict, hides the harmed reader, or records prior recusal afteruse as normal neutral success.
