Consultant analysis of paliad's deadline data model per m's framing
(court system → proceeding → ordered event types → conditional
trigger edges). Maps current 5-table fragmentation, identifies gaps
G1–G7, locks 5 structural decisions via AskUserQuestion, proposes
target shape with mermaid example, sketches 4-phase additive→cutover
migration. Pure design — no code or schema changes in this branch.
Locked decisions (verbatim):
- Q1: Reuse courts.court_type as court-system identity
- Q2: Project IS proceeding instance (sub-projects when needed)
- Q3: Separate proceeding_event_edges table (multi-parent natural)
- Q4: Typed if_flags/unless_flags/requires_event_id columns
- Q5: Subsume deadline_concepts into event_types.concept_slug
