"""Selection rules for the "similar schools nearby" section.
The hard filters encode claims the section is not allowed to make — that a
selective school is an alternative to a non-selective one, that a special
school is comparable to a mainstream one, or that a Girls school is an option
for a Boys school's reader. They never relax. The soft preferences describe
how close the intake is, and they do — but only far enough to reach a usable
set, never far enough to fill the last of the six slots.
