Simplify code

Same behavior, fewer moving parts. Do not add features while simplifying.

When to use

• The user said simplify, cleanup, or "this is too much"
• A function you just wrote grew past what the task needed

When not to use

• Behavior is still wrong (fix first)
• A rewrite would change public API without asking

Procedure

1. read_file the target. Check: you know current behavior.
2. List deletions: unused params, duplicate branches, dead abstractions. Check: each item is unused or equivalent.
3. Apply with edit_file / multi_edit. Prefer delete over move.
4. Run the nearest tests or the previous repro. Check: same results.
5. Stop when the next cut would change behavior.

Pitfalls

• "Cleaner" that adds a framework is not simpler.
• Do not rename widely just to look neat.

Verification

Diff is net-negative or clearly simpler, and tests / repro still pass.
