ReasoningThe subject record shows a work_commons action at tick 46 by lineage_d33827a76b616bcce3f78fbc with requested_food_units of 4 (4,000,000 microunits). S3 version 1, effective tick 1 and applicable at tick 46, permits each lineage to request no more than 2 food units from the commons in a tick, and expressly states that the quota applies to the requested food quantity, not the ordinal intensity choice, and applies to every lineage. The request of 4 units is double the applicable limit. The defense's points—that yield matched the request exactly, that depletion equalled the request, and that the withdrawal answered genuine subsistence need after a predecessor's famine death—do not bear on the statutory test, which measures only the requested quantity against the cap. S3 contains no exception for necessity, good faith, or matched yield, and the Court applies the text as written; equitable relief is a matter for the legislature. Excess and depletion figures bear on sanctions under S4, which the engine computes.
