  "statement": "The artifact must be readable at the resolution supplied — cropped, blurred, or truncated evidence does not establish consent.",
  "rationale": "A reviewer who cannot read your disclosure treats it as absent, so an illegible screenshot fails the same way a missing disclosure does, while looking to you like the requirement was met. This is a silent failure mode: the brand believes it supplied evidence and cannot understand the rejection.",

  "notes": "whenUnreadable is FAIL, against the default, because illegibility IS the defect this rule tests — returning UNCLEAR would make the rule unable to ever fail. Only the user can fix it: they must re-capture the artifact themselves, since we cannot reach their consent surface.",
