Method not executed by the collector.\n\nRationale:\nThe manual pages describe features in this order of the interface (Breakdown, Board, Day Breaks, Calendar, Day-Out-of-Days). The sequence is the collector's reading of how the features chain; the individual capabilities are stated by the vendor and by the standard's documentation.\n\nCounterevidence:\nMovie Magic documents one vendor's workflow; real productions use other tools and manual boards. USS docs describe a data model, not a scheduling procedure, and OpenShotDesigner's behaviour is an upstream claim.\n\nUncertainty:\nNot executed: no schedule was built in any tool. Reports pages (one-liner, shooting schedule, DOOD report) were only listed in the MMS table of contents.
