Notes and record state

Record note
HEI models Harborly as dead / voluntary_shutdown because contemporary reporting says the team closed the exchange to focus on a separate project and explicitly said the shutdown was not caused by hack, fraud, or a security-related incident. Regulatory and compliance burden is retained as context, not the primary death_reason.
Revision state
