### AI-assistance disclosure

Large language models were used as research tools in the preparation of this chapter: Claude Opus 4.7 (Anthropic; Integrator); source corpus by Gemini Deep Research (Generator), ChatGPT GPT‑5 (Critic), and Perplexity Pro (Citer) under the tri‑AI consensus protocol. The model versions and roles named above keep the provenance of this chapter auditable. No AI system is listed as an author or credited as a contributor, in line with COPE and ICMJE guidance: an AI system cannot take responsibility for the work, cannot assert competing interests, and cannot enter a licence agreement. The author verified every claim in this chapter against the sealed artifacts and is solely accountable for it.
