People can hold multiple positions and researching a secondary employer never switches the primary pin. This research will NOT surface on their touches — verify which company they actually work for before authoring from it. `conflict` is a transient race (the pin changed mid-save): replay the identical payload with the same idempotency key once — `person_id` is exempt from the idempotency hash, so adding it to a replay of an earlier save is also the supported repair path.
