+              (`UploadProbeMediaMetadata`, card `lGeDDi4V`), and once a probe

+
+        - `le_720p`, `p1080`, `gt_1080p`: ascending frame-pixel bands
+          (width x height). Their bounds are `max_frame_pixels` in
+          `schemas/resolution-bands.yaml` and are deliberately not
+          restated here.
+        - `unknown`: the upload probe reported no width or no height, so the
+          resolution could not be determined. A refusal or escalation under
+          this band means "we could not tell this file's resolution", which
+          calls for a different action (re-upload, wait for the probe,
+          contact us) than "your file is too long".
