# Counter-Strip Audit - Chapter 11

## Verdict

NO OVERCORRECTION.

## Checks

- Did integration strip too much warmth? NO. Evidence: Dom's dollar exchange, Priya/Ben spreadsheet exchange, and Mara's group text remain socially warm.
- Did integration over-plain Ruth/Sam? NO. The revised lines use two concrete cases: hospital access and HR utility bills.
- Did integration hide the chapter's thematic pressure? NO. The final cubbies and deleted correction keep PARK / BRENNAN legible without a speech.
- Did integration flatten Claude's frame-shop specificity? NO. Miter, splined repair, regilding, kraft, board, glass, rider, twine, and cubbies remain.
- Did integration overcorrect Ch10 hands cap? NO. The Week 4 painting remains recognizable as object continuity, but the prose no longer repeats hand-focused language unnecessarily.

REVISION ORDERS: None.
