Weakest anchored lines: `Mara assigned them a wall the way she would have assigned it to any settled pair` (abstract but tied to the on-page pairing maneuver); `Six people fit comfortably. They were eight` (plain staging but relevant to Sam's room-making); `The back was blank` (emblematic but literal route card).

Chapter verdict: SPECIFIC.

REVISION ORDERS: none.
