+Require the introduce-vs-amplify call in the posted comment prose, not just the finding. The discipline already made finders classify a defect as introduced or as a pre-existing mechanism amplified, but nothing required the classification to survive into the text the author reads: on the amplification behavior test the posted comment argued the distinction in substance (named the pre-existing default and attributed the regression to the guard removal) without ever stating it. The finder rule now requires a plain clause in the `discussion` ("introduced by this change", "pre-existing; this change amplifies it by removing the guard"), including the boundary case where the enabling mechanism predates the diff but the defect is new, and the claim-validator's amplification rule extends its `corrected` path to add the missing clause on either shape.
