The prose catches up with the one-version app — tier qualifiers retired, the entitlement comment carried over

The excision's follow-up sweep: present-tense prose that still implied an edition axis now reads
correctly under one version ("in every tier" clauses dropped or turned substrate-shaped, the
announcer's "every free-tier bracket today" is "every bracket today" — nothing passes a phrase),
and forward-looking promises pinned to the mooted pro-m1/pro-m2 milestones now name the thing
itself (the change narrator in Kanban/Changes/, the foreign-change journal successor) or fall to
past tense. Kanban.entitlements' network-client comment sheds its "dormant until Pro ships"
framing for the pivot's own reasoning: the key stays because the sync capability to come needs
it regardless. Untouched on purpose: the storage layer's coerce/tolerate/refuse tiers, the
chooser's bundled/user/keyless tiers, verbatim design-doc quotations, and genuine past-tense
record. One dangling reference repaired en route: EndToEndVerification.md cited the long-renamed
InertGitTests. Comment-only throughout; 2,686 unit tests green, unchanged.
