+**The delivery is not "nothing new", and this record said it was.** The decision above stands and is
+built: versions side by side, the newest runs, the running host stands aside between reconciles, a
+completed reconcile retires what is older than the predecessor, rollback picks a directory. What was
+wrong was a claim about how a version reaches a machine. The paragraph on delivery said the
+declaration "names it like any other archive… nothing new travels, no new resource kind"; the second
+half is true and the first is not, because two things the delivery needs do not exist:
+
+- **Nothing can compile it.** A `bundle` artifact is compiled by a closed list of toolchains —
+  typescript and python — whose own comment says adding a language is a decision, because a language
+  used by *modules* needs an SDK carrying the broker client, the event envelope and tool serving. The
+  host uses none of that: it is what applies modules, not one of them. So the obligation that list
+  warns about attaches to a module written in a language, not to the language being buildable, and
+  the control plane — also written in Go — is built as an image from a Dockerfile rather than through
+  a toolchain at all.
+- **A version cannot reach the path.** An `archive` resource names a fixed path in the manifest, and
+  nothing interpolates the built version into it, so nothing can ask for
+  `…/versions/<version>/`.
+
+Neither changes what was decided, which options were weighed, or any consequence: the shape is
+unaffected and the host half is merged and tested. What it changes is the cost, which this record
+understated as none. The remaining work is a way to build the host and a way to name a version in a
+path, and until both exist nothing delivers a version and every machine takes the fallback — which is
+what every machine does today.

 ## Consequences
 
 - **The host becomes a build target and a module** — a module whose resource is the next host, applied
