Step 9 is the solid orange anchor. A warning still needs an icon, a label and programmatic state—not color alone.

Use with evidence

Orange draws attention; structure carries meaning.

The collection is indexable only while all twelve published values match the frozen manifest. Individual token pages remain noindex so this complete scale stays the useful destination.

Test text, borders, focus indicators and adjacent surfaces in the finished interface. Pair warning color with an icon, explicit text and programmatic status.
