+ * Content types that were **renamed**, and what each is called now.

+ * A retired type and a renamed one are different cases, and only the first can

+ * replacement, the two spellings mean the same thing, and a note carrying the
+ * old one compiles into exactly the document it always did: refusing it would
+ * fail a build over a note that is not wrong.
+ *
+ * So these retire in the three steps `package:` took (#56), and this table is
+ * the **first**: both spellings resolve, the current one is canonical, and the
+ * retired one is *reported* — never refused. The sweep of the content trees and
+ * the refusal come after, once no tree writes the old name. That is the same
+ * rule `RETIRED_FIELD_ALIASES` states for a renamed *field*, and for the same
+ * reason: a consumer must be able to adopt the new toolchain before its content
+ * moves, and there are some 31,000 references to move.
+ *
+ * **Why these three (#78).** `armorgear`, `concoctiongear` and `projectilegear`
+ * named the *SoHL document subtype* a note happened to compile into rather than
+ * the thing the note is about. A note's `type` sits outside the `sohl:` and
+ * `hm3:` blocks precisely because it belongs to no system, and HM3 already
+ * compiles a `projectile` into a `missilegear` — so the suffix was never a fact
+ * about the note. `weapongear` keeps its name: SoHL and HM3 both call the
+ * document that, and #78's table has no row for it.
+ *
+ * **Keyed by the retired spelling**, which is the opposite of
+ * `RETIRED_FIELD_ALIASES`. The direction follows the operation: a field alias
+ * is scoped by the schema that declares the *current* name, so that is what a
+ * reader asks with; a type alias is applied to a value read off a note, so what
+ * a reader has in hand is the retired spelling and what it needs is the
+ * replacement.
+ *
+ * **The address is not normalised.** A note's canonical address — and therefore
+ * its document id — carries its `type` as authored, so both spellings keep the
+ * addresses they already publish and a tree that has not swept compiles
+ * byte-identically. Renaming the type in a note *is* an address move, which is
