+   *
+   * The two screens answer different questions. The UNIT is the anchor the
+   * approver NAMES, and a seeded unit carries `organization_id = null` by
+   * construction (a seed cannot know the id the runtime mints at boot), so
+   * #3807 admits the null there on purpose. The MEMBER rows are the SET BEING
+   * ROUTED TO — enumerated by the platform, never named by anyone — and a
+   * seeded unit id exists identically in every tenant. Before this screen the
+   * member read carried no organization predicate at all, under
+   * {@link SYSTEM_CTX} which carries no tenant either, so tenant A's request
+   * resolved the shared unit and then collected EVERY tenant's membership rows
+   * hanging off it: approval authority over A's record, routed to B's users.
+   *
+   * Why the null arm is NOT copied here — measured on this tree:
+   *   - `sys_business_unit_member` declares no `organization_id`; the column
+   *     is injected (`applySystemFields`) and the tenancy census lists it in;
+   *   - REST / session writes fill it (`SqlDriver.injectTenantOnInsert`);
+   *   - seed replay does NOT (`seed-loader.ts` withholds its `fallbackOrgId`
+   *     from every `sys_` object), and elevated system-context writes do NOT
+   *     (`unclassified` in `PLATFORM_OBJECT_TENANCY`, tracked as #14570).
+   * So a NULL on a member row means UNKNOWN tenancy, not "platform-global",
+   * and unknown tenancy is not a member of this organization. This is the
+   * ruling `plugin-sharing`'s `memberScope` already applies to the same rows
+   * (#14547 / #14949), and the posture this file already takes for
+   * `sys_team_member` and `sys_user_position`.
+   *
+   * The cost is declared, not hidden: an organization whose MEMBERSHIP rows
+   * were seeded or system-written expands to nobody even on a unit it can
+   * see. That is not silent — the graph-type fallback in `expandApprover`
+   * warns `expanded to nobody` (#3807) and `onEmptyApprovers` governs the
+   * request as for any unstaffed target — and the repair is to stamp the
+   * membership rows, never to widen this screen. ⛔ Do not "unify" the two
+   * screens: one method serving both re-opens whichever half it does not

+   *
+   * ## Which statuses it rebuilds, which it discriminates, and which it refuses
+   *
+   * ⛔ A status is NOT the same thing as a continuation. Three of the four
+   * terminal statuses have more than one writer or more than one issuer, so
+   * "one status, one signal" is false and is not what this relies on. Each row
+   * below states its own population and its own discriminator:
+   *
+   * | status | writers / issuers | rebuilt as | how it is decided |
+   * |---|---|---|---|
+   * | `approved` | 1 (`decide`; escalation auto-approve routes through it) | `approve` | unambiguous |
+   * | `rejected` | 2 (`decide`; ADR-0044 revision-limit auto-reject) | `reject`, or REFUSED | a `revise` action row means the auto-reject arm is possible |
+   * | `returned` | 1 writer, 2 issuers (`sendBack` → `revise`; a later `resubmit` → `resubmit`, writing no status) | `resubmit` or `revise` | a `resubmit` action row, whose sole writer is `resubmit` |
+   * | `recalled` | 2 writers, 3 behaviours, 2 issuing NO continuation | REFUSED | nothing on the row distinguishes them |
+   *
+   * ⚠️ **Both refusals are deliberate and neither is best-effort.** The failure
+   * mode of a wrong rebuild is a flow advanced down a branch nobody chose —
+   * strictly worse than the dead end this verb exists to open. Where the signal
+   * cannot be proved, this refuses and names what the operator can do instead;

+   * ⚠️ This is signal-aware, and that is the whole point of it. "This request's
+   * own node" is the right answer for three of the four signals and the WRONG
+   * answer for the fourth:
+   *
+   * | signal | issued from | why |
+   * |---|---|---|
+   * | `approve` / `reject` | the request's own approval node | the decision is taken at the pause it gates |
+   * | `revise` (send-back) | the request's own approval node | send-back resumes that same pause down the `revise` edge |
+   * | `recall` | the request's own approval node | recall-on-pending resumes that same pause down `reject` |
+   * | `resubmit` | the **revise window** the request's `revise` edge leads to | by construction: a resubmit is only reachable AFTER a send-back moved the run there, and it resumes THAT pause down the `resubmit` back-edge |
+   *
+   * Measured before this existed: a `returned` row whose resubmit stranded was
+   * refused by guard 3 on both the journal and the rebuild paths — the pause
+   * re-armed at the revise window while the row's `flow_node_id` still read the
+   * approval node — and the refusal told the operator the pause was not this
+   * request's when it was exactly this request's. A refusal may ship; a refusal
+   * that names a cause the code did not take may not.
+   *
+   * ⛔ It stays FAIL-CLOSED: the revise window is derived from the flow
+   * definition the same way {@link ApprovalService.assertReviseEdge} derives it
+   * — a `revise` out-edge of this request's node into a node the flow declares
+   * as `{@link APPROVAL_REVISE_NODE_TYPE}`, which is the pause only this service
+   * can continue. No engine, no flow, no such edge, or more than one candidate
+   * ⇒ refuse. It needs no automation surface `assertReviseEdge` did not already
+   * use (`getFlow`), and no engine change.
+   *
+   * ⚠️ It does not widen what guard 3 admits beyond that one signal: for every
+   * other decision the answer is byte-identical to the row's own node.
+   *
+   * ⛔ It is NOT what keeps the recall-in-revise-window shape (row `recalled`,
+   * run at the revise window) refused, and an earlier revision of this comment
+   * claimed it was — on the reasoning that such a row's journalled signal is
+   * `recall` rather than `resubmit`. That is false: a recall taken inside the
+   * revise window calls `cancelRun` and journals NOTHING, so the journal on
+   * such a row is whatever an EARLIER strand left there — a `resubmit`, most
+   * often, since the resubmit is what the window exists to receive. Measured:
+   * with the journal returned before the row's status was looked at, that
+   * stale `resubmit` reached this method, was answered with the revise window,
+   * matched the parked node, and opened a fresh `pending` round on a withdrawn
+   * request. What refuses it is the journal/status compatibility check in
+   * {@link ApprovalService.resolveRecordedContinuation} — see
+   * {@link CONTINUATIONS_A_STATUS_CAN_ISSUE} — which runs BEFORE this method
+   * and never hands it a signal the row's status cannot have issued.

+   * ## The dead end this exits
+   *
+   * A decision whose downstream node throws strands the run: the suspension is
+   * consumed, the decision is durable, and the caller gets `RESUME_FAILED`
+   * carrying `repairable: true`. `restoreConsumedSuspension` then genuinely
+   * re-arms the pause — measured `restored: true`, `hasSuspendedRun` back to
+   * `true` — and its own reason string tells the operator to *re-issue the
+   * continuation*. For an `approval` node there was then nobody who could:
+   *
+   *  - `decide` / `recall` / `sendBack` / `resubmit` all guard on a `pending`
+   *    request, and the row is terminal — written by the very call that
+   *    stranded the run;
+   *  - the generic `engine.resume` refuses, because the `approval` node
+   *    declares `resumeAuthority: 'service'` and the #3801 gate turns away any
+   *    resume that is not the tail of a decision this service authorized.
+   *
+   * So the only verb left was `cancelRun`, which discards the branch's
+   * downstream work. Measured on the real engine and the real door: the
+   * restored pause IS resumable, and a `resumeAuthority`-marked resume walks
+   * the reject branch to completion. Nothing was missing in the engine — what
+   * was missing was an ISSUER on this side. This is that issuer.
+   *
+   * ## What it deliberately does NOT do
+   *
+   * ⛔ It does not re-open, re-decide, or rewrite the request row: all four
+   * `pending` guards stay exactly as they are, and no status, mirror field or
+   * audit row is written. A person decided this once; this replays what they
+   * decided onto the pause that was put back, and replays nothing else.
+   * ⛔ It does not relax `resumeAuthority: 'service'` — the resume goes through
+   * {@link ApprovalService.serviceResume} like every other, so the marker is
+   * still stamped in exactly one place.
+   * ⛔ It grants no capability that in-process code did not already have:
+   * `RESUME_AUTHORITY_SERVICE` is importable by anything in the host, so the
+   * raw form of this call was always available. What this adds is the GUARDED
+   * form, and the guards are the substance of it — three, each with its own
+   * reverse-control pin, because the raw marker is not a guard and an
+   * unguarded repair verb advances flows nobody decided:
+   *
+   *  1. {@link assertLatestForRun} — this request is still the newest on its
+   *     run, so a superseded row cannot drive a later round or a later node;
+   *  2. `hasSuspendedRun` — a pause exists at all (strict: an unreadable store
+   *     throws rather than reading as "not suspended");
+   *  3. node identity — that pause is parked where THIS request's recorded
+   *     outcome was issued from: its own approval node for `approve`,
+   *     `reject`, `revise` and `recall`, and — for a `resubmit`, which is only
+   *     reachable from a revise window — the `approval_revise` node its own
+   *     `revise` edge leads to. {@link ApprovalService.expectedPauseNode}
+   *     derives it, fail-closed.
+   *
+   * Guard 3 is not redundant with guard 2: existence is not identity, and a
+   * boolean cannot tell this request's re-armed pause from any other live
+   * pause on the same run.
+   *
+   * ## Posture, and why it takes no `ExecutionContext`
+   *
+   * Deliberately shaped like the engine verb it completes: an in-process
+   * operator repair, reachable from a host or a console script, with no REST
+   * route and no entry in the spec `ApprovalService` contract — exactly as
+   * `restoreConsumedSuspension` is a class method on `AutomationEngine` and
+   * appears in no contract. It authorizes nothing new: the decision it replays
+   * was authorized and recorded when it was made, and re-authorizing it here
+   * against a present-day actor would be a different and wrong question (the
+   * original approver may be long gone). `requestedBy` / `reason` ride the log
+   * for the same reason they do on the restore.
+   *
+   * @returns what was replayed and whether the run moved — never a silent
+   *   `false`. A resume that fails again throws the same `RESUME_FAILED`
+   *   envelope the original decision did, `repairable` and all, so a second
+   *   restore-and-continue is possible.
