+ * @copyright Sister Software

+ * @author Teffen Ellis, et al.
+ *
+ *   The READ half of the `sub-venue` slice recipe (#35 step 4): which surfaces a locale may emit,
+ *   what identifier follows them in that region, and which real names become the confound negatives.
+ *   `sub-venue.ts` owns the WRITE half (line rendering + the emit loop) and the recipe registration;
+ *   split because the two halves together run past the 750-line file cap, and this is the split — one
+ *   side reads disk and the ledger, the other side never touches either.
+ *
+ *   Every rule in this file is a rule about EVIDENCE, and each one has a measurement behind it:
+ *
+ *   - {@link promotedSurfacesFor} — a promotion names a designator, a phrase AND a locale, because the
+ *       same token is a designator in one language and a disaster in another (`hall` is 0-of-3,273 in
+ *       Great Britain and 35-of-40 in France).
+ *   - {@link hasPromotedShape} — an `identifier-required` promotion is exercised only as
+ *       `<phrase> <identifier>`. The de-DE `halle` board is the founding case: its 168-hit confound
+ *       includes the CITY Halle (Saale), and only the identifier-bearing shape separates them.
+ *   - {@link buildIdentifierModel} — the identifier distribution is measured per REGION, because it
+ *       differs by country far more than the shared vocabulary suggests (GB gates 71% bare digit, ES
+ *       35% ranges).
+ *   - {@link isVenueSlotName} / {@link isSignIdentifier} — the filters that keep bus-stop codes, route
+ *       descriptions and street names out of the slots they would mislabel. Both were written FROM
+ *       smoke output, not predicted; the docstrings name the strings that produced them.
