A preamp's declared travel as the ControlLimit that rides OPTIONS — the ONE translation
between the capability's vocabulary and the wire's, so a row publishing a gain travel and a row
clamping one cannot spell it two ways.
The unit is stated, and it is the unit the VALUE rides in. That equality is the whole point:
before #165 the head-amp row published a value in dBu beside a range in dB, so the range did
not bound the value and no conformance arm could compare them — a defect that survived because
there was nothing coherent to check, not because nobody looked.
