The call with SoftFever settled that Orca-CAD is one of the branches to be implemented and that a design+dev group forms around it. A group without a written doctrine reviews by taste, and a CAD reviewed by taste becomes FreeCAD one locally-reasonable side panel at a time. So the doctrine is written first, as something a reviewer can FAIL a pull request against: ten laws each with its own test, the interaction grammar they compose into, the accessibility floor as a merge requirement, and a ten-question gate answered in every UI pull request. The position is Shapr3D's interaction economy, not its feature list — direct, gestural, almost no chrome, depth revealed by what you touch. Depth for mechanical designers arrives as progressive disclosure of tools that never move, in three tiers, non-modal, with assemblies and exploded views obeying the same point-then-act grammar as a beginner's extrude. The one thing neither Shapr3D nor FreeCAD has is that we live inside a slicer: plate, nozzle, material and build volume are known at design time, so print-domain failures are warnings on the geometry, not a report. Section 10 is an honest inventory: what already complies, and the six things that violate the laws today, none of them defended. The appendix keeps the anti-patterns we have already paid for, because each one is cheap to reintroduce. snaporca-2is.
