/// projected into the chart with `n_s` up leaves no freedom.

/// So a face carrying a CW outer loop with `same_sense = true` is MALFORMED,
/// not merely unusual. This function exists because one arrives anyway: nothing
/// refuses it on the way in, and `validate_uv_wire`'s verdict is filed under
/// `ValidationReport::wire_warnings`, which `validate()` does not return — so
/// every `validate().is_empty()` in the kernel reads clean on it.
///
/// Reading the source winding here is DEFENCE IN DEPTH, not a blessing of the
/// chart: it stops the boolean refusing on such a face and builds the correct
/// body instead. It does not make the face correct, and the real defect is
/// upstream in whatever produced it.

/// Measured on the 2026-09-21 through-tunnel body: five of the stretched

/// true` (the plain box's `Box_PZ` winds +1.2143e3; `TF3` is what flips it).
/// Rebuilding `Box_PZ` against the arrangement's CCW convention flips every
/// coedge on it, which is the six same-sense edges the boolean then refuses on.
///
/// Restricted to OPEN charts on purpose. On a closed/periodic chart a raw
