A cross-repo exchange settled that --plan may grow a --focus filter only if
the same run reports the repos it held back. The decision constrains a future
feature, but it lived only in a private mailbox and a local-only STATE.md, so
nothing durable pointed at it.
The argument is an invariant, not a preference: --plan documents that it has
no cutoff and labels rather than drops, and --focus IS a cutoff. Measuring the
held-back population also turned up the find that carries the decision - a
heavy consumer of the subject, invisible to every strict-marker measurement in
the exchange, recovered only by enumerating what the filter would have hidden.
Other repos are unnamed by design: this mirror is public, and which repo
carries which malformed marker line is that repo's business.
