Withdrawal liability: reinstatement after withdrawal · case 01

A reinstated offer still incurs withdrawal liability or a later withdrawal is masked by earlier reinstatement.

ROOT CAUSE

A reinstated offer still incurs withdrawal liability or a later withdrawal is masked by earlier reinstatement.

VERIFIED REPAIR

For reinstatement after withdrawal, apply the stipulated decision [b for b in dict.fromkeys(b for op,b in x["events"]) if [op for op,c in x["events"] if c==b][-1]=="withdraw"].

Unsuccessful approach: The attempted repair uses [b for b in dict.fromkeys(b for op,b in x["events"] if op=="withdraw") if b not in [c for op,c in x["events"] if op=="reinstate"]]; the explicit regression cases demonstrate that this still violates the stipulated auction rule.

Case contract

A toy auction withdrawal policy distinguishes voluntary withdrawal before award, excused withdrawal, replacement proceeds, paid deposits and caps on liquidated liability. Nonnegative integer credits are used; no legal or financial interpretation is intended. Named decision reinstatement-after-withdrawal: For reinstatement after withdrawal, apply the stipulated decision [b for b in dict.fromkeys(b for op,b in x["events"]) if [op for op,c in x["events"] if c==b][-1]=="withdraw"].

Verification & scope

Stipulated toy auction rules, not a venue specification, financial advice, optimization claim, or live trading implementation. Nonnegative integer inputs and internally aligned list fields only. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
