However, four defect classes have blown past the 5-in-24h trigger: product-name-truncation (25), missing-why-we-like-blurb (25), live-title-orphan-modifier (25), and live-missing-faq-coverage (25). The self-improvement loop fired for rewrite-fragment-not-document (at threshold) and itemlist-doubled-best (6), but NOT for the high-volume defects above—suggesting detector gaps or misfiring logic.
