// mesh-catalog #205 gave docker's `state` directory `"place": "."`, which resolves to <root>/docker: with the
// default root, /var/lib/docker, every container's filesystem. systemPath judged only the `places` and `accesses`
// settings, so the default layout and a definition's own paths reached the merge gate unjudged; it composed every
// machine and passed, and only the node-engine refused the directory, at apply, failing the walk.
//
// **Judged where a definition is judged, never where a machine is composed.** resolvedPathProblems runs in
// ParseManifest, which every route a definition takes into the mesh passes: `module check`, registration of a
// build (the builder's and the registry verbs'), and the merge gate's reading of the changed repository. A
// refusal there stops one definition before it reaches any machine. Composition reads registered manifests
// without ParseManifest, and judges nothing of this: refusing there would fail the whole machine's declaration and
// freeze every module on it for one module's path, where the node-engine fails only that resource.
//
// **The node-engine's rules, no more** (mesh-host's internal/apply/placement_guard.go, with files judged as
// directories are after novox/hq issue 495, rule 6). A path is refused when it is one of protectedRoots or holds
// one, when it is at or below a tree in forbiddenBelow, or at or below one of engineTrees and its module is not
// the node-engine's. What the engine judges with what only the machine knows stays the engine's: where the
// runtimes really keep their data, links, the accounts' homes, a directory's owner below /etc. The lists are the
// engine's own words, and a test (engine_guard_test.go) holds them equal to mesh-host's beside this repository.
