Replacing one with the other may change constant factors, but it does not remove an O(N²) list algorithm because no such list algorithm existed here. A result from one interpreter, machine, or synthetic workload is not enough to support a general percentage claim. +**Action:** Preserve first-seen ordering and filtering semantics. Treat the explicit-loop change as a performance candidate until a reproducible benchmark on the exact code and representative AppGuardrail workloads demonstrates a material improvement; do not publish a percentage or asymptotic claim without that evidence.
