+# Deliberately carries no logo. The org mark is a check inside a rounded tile,
+# which is the same object GitHub's ✅ is — same shape, same silhouette, only
+# the hue differs. Putting it immediately above the verdict line meant a failing
+# report opened with a tick and then said "❌ 2 of 4 checks failed": the first
+# symbol the eye lands on contradicted the second, and it did so precisely when
+# the reader most needs to read the result quickly.
+#
+# The verdict line is the one status signal in this report, and one is the right
+# number. "Commit Check" in words is unambiguous branding; a checkmark next to a
+# failure is not.
+#
+# Do not "fix" this by showing the logo only on success — that makes the logo's
+# presence itself a status signal, which is the same defect wearing a hat.
