+6. Self-assertion with an edge.

A narrator writes off a man who failed to meet what he promised, states her own worth and her refusal of any secondary role, and reports moving on with the help of a friend and the interest of someone new.

static_portrait. The narrator's position is settled before the first line and does not move; the song asserts a standing rather than travelling to one. internal_work was tested and set aside, since no self-examination or accountability appears and the fault is located entirely in him. The encouragement route does not apply: the address is first-person, not toward a listener's dignity. HARM AXIS, and the pervasiveness test is the deciding analysis here. - Orange 9 and R13 targeting: an aside aims a gendered epithet at the man's new partner and frames her as the lesser option. Run R13's strip test: removing the epithet still leaves a comparison implying the other woman is a downgrade, so a cruelty survives and it grades. Run R5(d): the epithet is DEPLOYED by the narrator at a target rather than voiced from the victim position, so it is the contaminating kind. - Smaller items: a line denying the man ever held her heart, a dig routed through another man's interest, and a light status display (new photographs, a partner on a professional team). PERVASIVENESS, by removal: strike the epithet, the comparison, and the two digs, and a coherent higher song remains, namely the refusal of a secondary role, the naming of her own distress and recovery, the observation that he held her back, and the friend in the salon. The chorus, which carries most of the runtime, is moving-on content rather than payload. DISCRETE, not pervasive, so this does not route to negative_payload. "Harm: -20. Pervasiveness: discrete."

- blue 6 (vulnerability without performance): she credits the crying and the solving to the same person, owning the unflattering half rather than presenting only the recovered one. - blue 3 (acceptance of a hard truth): the premise is that the disappointment is real and settled. - blue 10 (a visible letting-go), delivered as dismissal rather than as release. No transformation, no self-examination, and the self-worth is asserted rather than demonstrated, so nothing reaches the Elevated band. "Transcendence: 12."

Placed against +12 and +25-gratitude. Essentially at +12: coherent and specific, but the substance is a claim about herself rather than an articulated truth, which is that entry's situation. Well weaker than +25-gratitude: that entry's whole substance is sincere thanks directed outward, whereas the outward content here is dismissal. Held just under +12 by the fact that the elevating lines are few against a chorus of scene-setting. "Precedents: +12, +25-gratitude" and "Center: 11".

- Saturation: -1. The genuinely elevating material is a handful of lines; the chorus sets a scene. - Resolution: 0. Closes on the chorus and outro, matching the placements. - Register: +1. The couplet crediting both the distress and the recovery to herself, and the line about singleness, are fresh and precise constructions. - Reach: 0. Personal, comparable to the placements.

The harm axis is DISCRETE and the transcendence axis governs, which is the contamination case exactly, and the read lands in a tier that can carry the flag. "Contamination: a gendered epithet aimed at the man's new partner, framing her as the lesser option"

No doctrinal framework appears. dogma_referenced=false.

Decent territory, essentially at +12, because the dominant arc is a settled self-assertion after a disappointment, asserted rather than worked through.
