/**
 * Destination measures — categories, the card grouping, and the disclosure
 * guards.
 *
 * DfE suppresses individual cells with `c`, and the destination categories sum
 * to the cohort. So subtracting the published cells from the cohort total
 * recovers a lone suppressed cell exactly — which is the case on 22% of
 * mainstream secondaries.
 *
 * The guards here are the SECOND line of defence, not the first. Not drawing a
 * number does nothing to stop it being computed, so the real fix lives in
 * backend/data_loader.py::_mask_for_disclosure, which withholds a companion
 * cell before the figures ever leave the server. These functions keep the UI
 * honest about what it draws from an already-safe payload.
 *
 * See docs/superpowers/specs/2026-08-28-destination-measures-design.md.
