Reconcile external-link and topic-relevance reach-loss framing to the algorithm-signals
SSOT across 6 files (10 edits): body links "correlate with lower reach" (LinkedIn denies
an intentional penalty), topic relevance is a positive ranking input with no quantified
off-topic figure. 3 plan-cited lines + 7 same-class siblings surfaced during verify.
Bucket B (link-penalty lines in linkedin-formats.md) folded into S28; Bucket D (other
unsourced reach-coefficients: -68%/-25%/-15-25%/-30-50%/55%) queued as new S30. Engagement-
pod + AI-slop "penalized" framing left intact (officially confirmed). Gate 81/0/0; counts
29/19 unchanged.
