The sequence
Stake. Inlet. Keep or refuse.
Bram watches a handful of balls into a tray we keep honest with Percival fines, not with a mat that never met king-tide clay.
The plane is staked first. Then we name the hours you actually play: Budd Inlet fog, Priest Point tide, or Black Lake shade. After that the floor is kept, a tick is moved, or a costume elevation is refused. We do not shave both sands "a little" so nobody feels corrected.
When the player, not the plane, is the variable, Sigrid writes a coaching flag and the chain stops. Datum desks do not teach entry. Datum desks keep floors from digging.
