Decided to keep the dual-event model (kind 30078 canonical + additive 34235/36 mirror) rather than collapse to a single canonical 34235 note. Captures the rationale: private videos can't be public NIP-71 (no encryption), and kind 30078 is the addressing root (watch-history/comments/reactions/views/playlists/naddr/ moderation + hardcoded video filters) so switching it is a large forward-only migration not worth the interop win right now. Accepted trade-off: keep the mirror in sync on edit/delete (Phase 1 polish). Phase 0/1 builder/parser remain reusable if single-canonical is ever revisited.
