(* RG 91's Table of Precedence (docs/research/rules-register.md §4). Each
   branch below is one of the table's 28 entries, checked in the table's own
   numeric order -- lower wins, and because occasional entries are true
   exceptions to a later, broader one (RG 91 entry 18's Ember days are an
   exception carved out of entry 22's Lent ferias; entry 21/26's vigils are
   an exception carved out of the generic Class2/Class3 sanctoral-feast
   entries that would otherwise also match), checking in table order and
   returning on the first match is what makes the exception actually win
   without a separate exclusion for every later entry it pre-empts.

   Two kinds of evidence decide an entry:
   - The temporal cycle's own office (Nativity, a Sunday, a feria, All Souls)
     is identified structurally, from the context's date/season/weekday and
     the day's Easter offset -- never from its slug, which is just a label.
     [origin = Temporal] gates every such entry so a sanctoral candidate that
     happens to share a date (Immaculate Conception can never coincide with
     the movable cycle, but nothing stops a future rite bug from producing
     one) cannot be mistaken for the office itself. All Souls (entry 8, the
     one non-temporal-origin member of this group) additionally reads the
     context's weekday for its own register-stated exception -- see entry 8
     below.
   - A sanctoral feast's entry is decided by its [rank], and -- except at
     entry 14 (see its own comment below, where the register draws no such
     line) -- per the brief's structural insight, also by its
     {!Celebration.t}.layer: a celebration whose layer is not the universal
     base is an overlay, hence "proper" or "indult" rather than the
     universal entry (11-13 I class; 16/19/20 II class; 23/24 III class; see
     precedence_ef.mli). [origin = Sanctoral] gates these for the same
     reason: temporal-origin celebrations carry the literal layer id
     "temporal" (rite_ef/temporal_ef.ml's [build]), which is not
     [universal_layer] either, and would otherwise be misread as "proper" by
     the layer test alone.

   Vigils (21, 26) are the one shape neither of those two kinds fully
   describes on their own: a II/III-class vigil can be temporal-origin (the
   Ascension Vigil, produced by temporal_ef today) or sanctoral-origin (a
   saint's vigil, not yet loaded by any task), so its entry cannot be gated
   on [origin] at all. Nothing in the day's other fields marks "this is a
   vigil, not an ordinary office of the same rank" either, so this reads it
   off the temporal cycle's own slug convention (a "-vigil" suffix -- see
   [named] in temporal_ef.ml) rather than guessing a new one. *)

   off the temporal cycle's own slug suffix (rite_ef/temporal_ef.ml's
   [named], e.g. "ef-ascension-vigil"). *)
let vigil_suffix = "-vigil"

(* Not an RG citation -- see [universal_layer]. Task 10's sanctoral bootstrap
   turned out to name its four real vigils with lectio's OWN convention, a
   "vigil-of-X" PREFIX (data/ef/sanctoral.sexp: vigil-of-st-lawrence,
   vigil-of-sts-peter-paul, vigil-of-the-assumption, vigil-of-the-nativity-
   of-st-john-the-baptist), not [vigil_suffix] -- exactly the mismatch Task
   7's review predicted when it asked for [vigil_suffix] to be exposed.
   [is_vigil] below checks both conventions, so a celebration is a "vigil"
   for RG 91/33's purposes regardless of which layer (temporal or sanctoral)
   produced it. *)

(* Not an RG citation -- see [universal_layer]. Entry 18's Ember days are
   identified by the temporal cycle's own slug convention (rite_ef/
   temporal_ef.ml's [ember]: "ef-<set>-ember-<day>"), not re-derived here:
   the September anchor in particular is one of the more contested dates in
   the 1962 calendar (temporal_ef.ml's own comment on
   [third_sunday_of_september]), and re-deriving it a second time would only
   create a second place for that same uncertainty to drift. Only the
   Advent, Lent and September sets are listed: RG 91 entry 18 names exactly
   those three; the Whitsun (Pentecost) set is I class and falls inside the
   Pentecost octave, entry 10, matched below before this is ever reached.
   Exposed for the same reason as [vigil_suffix]: a rename of temporal_ef's
   format has somewhere to be caught other than a silently-wrong entry 18.

   [september_ember_prefix] is broken out as its own name (rather than an
   anonymous list literal) because Task 9's [privilege_of] needs to test the
   September set alone, RG 109 privileging it while leaving the Advent and
   Lent sets ordinary (register lines 375-376) -- building [ember_prefixes]
   from it rather than duplicating the literal keeps the two from silently
   drifting apart. *)

   docs/research/1962-06-23,_SS_Ioannes_XXIII,_Missale_Romanum,_LT.pdf, the
   General Rubrics' own Chapter XI "De Vigiliis"). The register previously
   transcribed this as "a I/II-class vigil is entirely omitted"; the
   PRIMARY TEXT reads the other way round:

     "33. Vigilia II aut III classis penitus omittitur, si occurrat in
     dominica quavis, aut in festo I classis, vel si festum cui
     præmittitur in alium diem transferri aut ad commemorationem reduci
     contingat."

   -- "A vigil of the II OR III class is entirely omitted, if it occurs on
   ANY Sunday whatsoever, or on a feast of the I class, or if the feast it
   precedes happens to be transferred to another day or reduced to a
   commemoration." I-class vigils (Nativity, Pentecost, RG 30) are outside
   this rule entirely -- RG 30's own text says they "festis quibuslibet
   præferunt, et nullam admittunt commemorationem" (are preferred to ANY
   feast whatsoever, and admit no commemoration at all), i.e. they can never
   lose in the first place: {!band} entries 1/5/9 already rank Nativity Eve
   and the Pentecost Vigil above every Sunday and every other I-class row
   that could coincide with their fixed/Easter-relative dates (verified: no
   date collision is even representable), so no I-class vigil can ever reach
   this function as a [loser] -- the branch below never needs to test for
   [Class1] and, before this fix, its stray inclusion of [Class1] here was
   simply dead code, not a second bug (see the task report for the
   argument). The bug was the OTHER half: [Class3] (the sole III-class
   vigil, St Lawrence, RG 32) was MISSING from this branch, so it fell
   through to the generic "commemorated or omitted" branch below instead of
   RG 33's mandatory omission -- confirmed wrong for real data: 9 August
   2026 is a Sunday, and before this fix "vigil-of-st-lawrence" competed for
   (and could in principle win) that Sunday's single commemoration slot,
   when RG 33 says it must not even be a candidate. The oracle comparison
   (missalemeum, Task 16) independently confirms: 9 Aug 2026 shows no trace
   of the vigil surviving as a commemoration.

   The third omission trigger in RG 33's own text -- "or if the feast it
   precedes is transferred to another day or reduced to a commemoration" --
   is NOT implemented: no II/III-class vigil's own feast (Ascension,
   Assumption, John Baptist, Sts Peter & Paul, Lawrence) is ever
   transferred or reduced to a commemoration anywhere in this codebase's
   current data (all fixed I-class, none coincide with anything of equal or
   higher rank within any year this project has sampled), so no witness
   exists to build or test this clause against; flagged in the register
   (§6) rather than guessed. *)

       NON-privileged TEMPORAL-cycle office has no standing to be
       commemorated at all when impeded -- it is simply omitted, not the
       "commemorated or omitted, per rubric" residual RG 95 leaves open for
       everything else. Three primary texts read together settle this:

       - RG 95: "Alia festa, ab Officio gradus superioris accidentaliter
         impedita, AUT COMMEMORANTUR AUT, eo anno, PENITUS OMITTUNTUR, IUXTA
         RUBRICAS" -- impeded offices are "either commemorated or, that
         year, entirely omitted, ACCORDING TO THE RUBRICS" -- i.e. some
         OTHER rule decides which fate applies; RG 95 itself does not grant
         a commemoration to everything impeded.
       - RG 109 gives that other rule for the temporal cycle: an EXHAUSTIVE,
         closed six-item list of the only temporal-origin circumstances that
         ever generate a commemoration -- (a) of a Sunday; (b) of a I-class
         day; (c) of days within the Nativity Octave; (d) of the September
         Ember days; (e) of Advent/Lent/Passiontide ferias; (f) of the Major
         Rogations. [privilege_of] above already implements exactly this
         list (its own six branches, each cited to its own RG 109 letter);
         its terminal "[else Precedence.Ordinary]" is what a TEMPORAL-origin
         candidate falls through to when it matches NONE of (a)-(f) -- an
         ordinary green-season feria of Time after Epiphany/Pentecost/
         Easter, a plain (non-Ember) Advent/Lent weekday already caught by
         (e), or a Minor Rogation day (RG 87 -- deliberately NOT named by
         RG 109(f), see [privilege_of]'s own comment on that letter).
       - RG 113: "Commemoratio de Tempore fit primo loco" -- the
         commemoration OF THE TEMPORAL DAY is made FIRST [in the list, when
         one is due] -- presupposes RG 109 already answered whether one is
         due; it does not itself create a right for every impeded feria.

       So testing [privilege_of loser = Ordinary] here, for a TEMPORAL-origin
       loser specifically, is not a second, parallel "is this commemorable"
       predicate that could drift from RG 109's own list -- it IS RG 109's
       list, already computed by [privilege_of] for the commemoration this
       branch is about to deny. SANCTORAL losers are entirely unaffected
       (the [is_temporal] guard): RG 111(c)/(d) admit an "ordinary"
       commemoration of a losing SAINT freely, with no such closed-list
       gate -- this omission is specific to the temporal cycle's own
       ferial/Sunday-tail offices, never to a saint.

       Empirically confirmed against the missalemeum oracle (Task 16,
       2026-2027, both years): every one of ~190 days where a saint's feast
       impedes an ordinary (non-privileged) temporal feria shows ZERO
       commemorations in the oracle, including the exact shape this fixes
       (e.g. "St. Marcellus I" impeding the plain "Friday after Epiphany",
       6/730 identical instances of the pattern per week of ordinary time)
       -- and the SAME fix, for the same reason, independently corrects the
       Minor Rogation days (RG 87) losing to a saint (9/730 days), which
       [privilege_of]'s own (f) comment already flags as NOT RG 109(f).

       [is_vigil] is EXCLUDED from this branch deliberately: a II/III-class
       vigil is temporal-origin too (when it is the Ascension/Pentecost-
       adjacent case {!of_temporal} produces) and [privilege_of] rightly
       calls it [Ordinary] (a vigil is none of RG 109(a)-(f)), but vigils
       are NOT governed by RG 109 at all -- they carry their OWN, separate,
       explicit commemoration mandate: RG 31 (II class) "Hae vigiliae
       praeferuntur diebus liturgicis III et IV classis; ET, SI
       IMPEDIUNTUR, COMMEMORANTUR, iuxta rubricas" and RG 32 (III class, St
       Lawrence) "si impeditur, COMMEMORATUR, iuxta rubricas" -- "if
       impeded, ARE/IS commemorated". So a vigil impeded WITHOUT triggering
       RG 33's full omission (the [is_omissible_vigil] branch above, e.g.
       impeded by an ordinary sanctoral feast that is neither a Sunday nor
       I class) must still fall through to the final [Commemorate] branch
       below, exactly like a sanctoral loser -- RG 31/32's own text, not
       RG 109's closed list, is what governs it. *)

    (* RG 95's other branch: "aut commemorantur aut penitus omittuntur" --
       commemorated or wholly omitted. Reached by every SANCTORAL loser
       below I class (RG 111(c)/(d)'s "ordinary" commemoration, no closed
       list the way the temporal branch above has), AND by an impeded
       I-class Sunday (excluded from the [Transfer] branch above, and from
       the temporal-Ordinary [Omit] branch above because [privilege_of]'s
       (a) makes a Sunday loser [Privileged], never [Ordinary]): RG 109(a)
       (register line 374) lists "of a Sunday" as a privileged commemoration
       category, which presupposes an impeded Sunday stays put rather than
       moving to another day the way a feast does -- [privilege_of] tags it
       [Privileged] via the same [is_sunday_slug] marker, with no further
       code needed here. Which of commemorate/omit survives is RG 108-111's
       admission count ([admit], below), not this function's decision; this
       only opens the commemoration, tagged with its real RG 109 privilege
       via [privilege_of].

       RG 94 (a fixed-day commemoration is not carried along with a
       transferred feast) needs no code here: [Precedence.resolve] calls
       this function once per loser, always against the day's actual
       [observed] winner -- never against a fellow loser that itself
       transferred away -- so no mechanism exists by which a commemoration
       could ride along with a departing feast in the first place; there is
       nothing to suppress. *)

   (docs/research/rules-register.md §4, register line 378, "Commemorations"
   RG 111). [band] decides who wins the day; [disposition] decides who is
   even eligible to be commemorated, and tags each with its RG 109 privilege
   via [privilege_of]; this decides how many of THOSE survive.

   RG 111 keys its four admission rules off the CLASS OF THE DAY ("diebus I
   classis", "dominicis II classis", "aliis diebus II classis", "diebus III
   et IV classis") -- read here off [observed]'s own [rank] and, for the
   Sunday/non-Sunday II-class split, the same slug marker [privilege_of] and
   RG 33's [impedes_vigil] already use ([is_sunday_slug]). No [context]
   (date/season/weekday) is available to [admit] (see precedence.mli's

         commemoration, whenever due, categorically takes the day's one slot
         -- not by comparing its dignity against the ordinary contender's,
         so an ordinary commemoration that would otherwise win on raw
         dignity is still dropped once any privileged one is also due (the
         asymmetric clause the brief and task report flag as deliberate, not

         reserved SPECIFICALLY for a [Class2] candidate -- "de festo II

   by comparing the GENERAL RG 96 target against Easter itself, not by
   testing the date here. Identified by slug -- the same convention this
   file already uses to pick out one specific celebration from a rank/
   status shape shared by many others ({!nativity_octave_prefix},
   [is_ember_18]'s date anchors) -- not an RG citation itself: RG 96 does

   Calendar's own [max_transfer_rounds] plays for the OUTER round loop
   (calendar.ml). That guard bounds how many ROUNDS the whole-year placement
   pass takes; it does nothing for the walk a single call to this function
   makes internally, which is this module's own responsibility (rite.mli
   documents the obligation this constant exists to satisfy). Comfortably
   longer than the longest real run of consecutive I/II-class days the 1962
   calendar produces -- 24 Dec to 1 Jan (the Nativity vigil through the
   Circumcision, both I class, with the intervening octave days II class) is
   9 days; Easter through Low Sunday (the Easter octave, I class, entry 10)
   is 8 -- RG 91 entry 28's own unqualified IV-class catch-all guarantees a
   non-blocking feria follows any such run in real data. Not tuned to that
   bound any more than 64 is tuned to RG 97-98's real collision count: a
   ceiling nothing in the 1962 calendar comes close to, so a rite/data shape
   this module has not anticipated fails FINITELY (see [search_from]) rather
   than hanging the CLI. *)

(* The domain's own ceiling ({!Date.make}'s documented 1583..9999 bound,
   also duplicated by calendar.ml's own [domain_max_date] for the same
   reason: neither module exposes it to the other, and this is a three-line
   constant, not worth a new signature just to share it). [search_from]
   below must never call [occupant] on a date past this: [occupant] chains
   through the rite's own [temporal] (calendar.ml's [resolve_with_injected]),
   which for the real EF rite calls [Computus.gregorian_easter], which is
   NOT total outside 1583..9999 -- it constructs a [Date.t] via [Date.make]
   and [failwith]s on [Error]. [Date.add_days] itself has no such limit (it
   is documented "unbounded total arithmetic"), so [search_from] CAN walk
   [d] past 31 December 9999 without raising by itself -- the raise would
   only happen on the NEXT [occupant d] call, which is exactly the bug this
   guards against: an I-class feast impeded late enough in civil year 9999
   that every remaining day of the year is also I or II class (reachable
   through the project's own overlay mechanism, confirmed by review: an
   Add-ed I-class feast on 25 December leaves only Class2 Nativity-octave
   days for the rest of 9999, so the unguarded walk reached 1 January 10000
   and crashed there). *)

(* Walks forward from [d], returning the first date [occupant] reports as
   NOT [is_blocking]. [steps] is a strictly increasing structural bound on
   the recursion, capped at [max_search_days]: the function decreases
   [max_search_days - steps] by exactly one on every call and returns as
   soon as that reaches zero (whether or not an admissible day was ever
   found), so THIS loop terminates by construction, regardless of what
   [occupant] reports -- it does not rely on the real EF calendar's own
   structure to guarantee termination the way the comment above explains
   why the bound is never actually reached in practice. Also stops, without
   calling [occupant] again, once [d] passes {!domain_max_date} -- see that
   constant's own comment for why probing [occupant] beyond it can raise.
   Either way the last date visited is returned WITHOUT a further
   [occupant] probe -- one more finite (not necessarily admissible) date,
   not a further search -- because the value the caller ([transfer_target])
   is still owed is "a date", never an exception; {!Calendar}'s own
   [~start ~stop] bound (calendar.ml's [place_transfers]) is what turns an
   implausible non-terminating real search into a recorded [omitted], not
   this function pretending to have found something admissible. *)

(* [transfer_target]'s contract (rite.mli): total, terminating, and its
   result is always strictly after [origin]. Terminating: [search_from]'s
   own structural bound, above. Strictly after [origin]: the general branch
   is exactly [search_from]'s own result starting at [Date.add_days origin
   1], which only ever advances forward from there, so it is always >=
   origin + 1. The Annunciation branch, when it fires, instead searches from
   the Monday after Low Sunday for [origin]'s own civil year -- NOT provably
   later than [origin] by the code alone, but true of every representable
   year: the Annunciation's [origin] is always 25 March (Date_spec.Fixed in
   data/ef/sanctoral.sexp), Easter always falls within that SAME civil year
   in [22 March, 25 April] (Computus's own documented range, register §0),
   so Low Sunday (Easter + 7) falls in [29 March, 2 May] and the Monday
   after it in [30 March, 3 May] -- always after 25 March.

   RG 96 Attamen (a) (see {!annunciation_slug}'s own comment) makes the
   Annunciation exception CONDITIONAL on the general walk carrying the
   feast past Easter -- so the general target is always computed FIRST,
   for every candidate, and only overridden for the Annunciation when that
   target itself falls after Easter Sunday. A version of this function that
   tested the DATE of [origin] instead (e.g. "is 25 March within some fixed
   window of Easter") would be re-deriving the register's own "quando est
   transferendum post Pascha" condition from first principles, exactly the
   kind of guess this project's "a wrong citation is worse than a missing
   one" rule warns against; comparing the general target against Easter
   directly tests the rubric's own words. *)
