  "statement": "The artifact must depict the brand's own working opt-in surface — not stock imagery, a design template, or a mockup of a page that does not exist yet.",
  "rationale": "A designed mockup shows what the brand intends to build, and reviewers approve against what exists. When the campaign starts sending, the real page is whatever was actually shipped, and nobody has ever checked it. Honest brands produce these because the compliance step lands before the launch, which is why the fix is usually a date rather than a design change.",
