+ * exposed standalone.
+ *
+ * The order is the legacy omega-manager brand-config order extended with
+ * the new-world sections. Unknown keys keep their relative order after the
+ * known ones. Only the TOP level is ordered — nested layout stays exactly
+ * as authored.
+ *
+ * Loss-proof by construction: the root object's inner region is cut into
+ * contiguous TILES, one per top-level entry — each tile runs from the end
+ * of the previous entry's last line to the end of its own last line, so
+ * leading comment blocks, blank lines, and same-line trailing comments all
+ * belong to exactly one tile. Reordering permutes whole tiles and never
+ * synthesizes text (beyond trailing commas, which JSON5 allows everywhere).
+ * The result must JSON5-parse to data deep-equal to the input or this
+ * throws and the caller writes nothing.

+// ordered, so each fold is one entry here; the nesting under it is authored.

+ * getters. Browser code receives `dev.ports` via the injected dev config —
+ * it can read neither env nor files.

+ * ([#262](https://github.com/Omega-JS-Stack/omega/issues/262)).
