/**
 * DELVE as an authoring system.
 *
 * Four readings of generated output landed on the same verdict: the fiction and the structure are
 * good, the table-readiness is not, and the honest product is a strong first draft a GM finishes.
 * "The handwritten delve still tells the GM what matters faster."
 *
 * That reframes the density problem rather than solving it. Everything on the page is a vice at
 * the table and a virtue at the desk. So a delve now has two surfaces:
 *
 *   WORKSHEET — everything, labelled, with explicit prompts for what only a human can write.
 *   PLAY SHEET — only what survived, in the GM's own words, tight enough to scan.
 *
 * The delve JSON is the working file. It carries an `authored` layer that the generator never
 * touches, so rerolling a component cannot destroy written prose.
