The direction is the part a reviewer cannot check by looking, so it is
asserted at both ends of the table and in both tiers' groups: an inverted
mapping still maps every value to something, and a case that only asks
whether a severity parser exists passes on the exact defect. The reader
that turns a rendered operator list back into a PRIORITY -> name function
lives in lib.nix, since both tiers need it.
The panel is asserted on its query rather than its title, because a panel
that keeps the title and loses the expression renders an empty graph that
looks exactly like zero prioless lines.
The single module-eval derivation forced ~62 full nixosSystem
fixtures live at once to compute its cases list: 10.6GB peak RSS /
5m25s to evaluate, by far the dominant cost in nix flake check.
Splits it into 21 independent checks.module-eval-* derivations
(1-7 fixtures each) sharing builders/helpers via module-eval/lib.nix,
so no single derivation needs more than a handful of fixtures live
at once. A few cases spanning two clusters carry a small duplicated
fixture rather than threading shared state through lib.nix.
