Direction 2 — Broadsheet

Skippy as a front page written for one reader. Real editorial hierarchy: a lede in large serif, a standfirst, a byline that carries the age, hairline rules instead of cards. What needs him is literally the headline. Right call if the thing he wants most is to read his own life in thirty seconds and know what matters — the voice screen becomes the quiet room, not the main event.

You approved both. The quality gate refuses to publish them, and lowering the bar to get past it is exactly what the rule forbids.
