This follow-up Phase C-lite slice replaces purely internal helper modules
with stable external no-op surfaces and collapses internal elevated error
logging to a no-op. The change removes additional USER_TYPE-gated helper
behavior without touching product-facing runtime flows.
Constraint: Keep this PR limited to isolated helper modules that are already external no-ops in practice
Rejected: Pulling in broader speculation or logging sink changes | less isolated and easier to debate during review
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Continue Phase C with similarly isolated helpers before moving into mixed behavior files

Squash the current repository state back into one baseline commit while
preserving the README reframing and repository contents.
Constraint: User explicitly requested a single squashed commit with subject "asdf"
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: broad
Reversibility: clean
Directive: This commit intentionally rewrites published history; coordinate before future force-pushes
Tested: git status clean; local history rewritten to one commit; force-pushed main to origin and instructkr
Not-tested: Fresh clone verification after push
