FIRST WAVE DEPLOYMENT ORDER RECOMMENDATION
================================================================================

Suggested sequence (cleanest first, builds confidence for rest of pipeline):

  1st: SET LIST 19 — Della of Troy
       Reason: Lowest GX (5), G/PG, no adult flags, entry-point collection.
               Lowest-risk first deployment. Tests the pipeline with safest content.

  2nd: SONG LIST 5 — Love Without a Doubt
       Reason: All PG, 12 tracks, completely clean. Canonical "love axis" collection.

  3rd: SET LIST 10 — Go Ask Gramm
       Reason: PG-13 only. First Set List to deploy with full Rolling Stone review.

  4th: SET LIST 12 — Wounded Masculinity
       Reason: First NC-17-containing collection. Tests adult content flagging.
               If NC-17 displays correctly in Blocks 6, 9, 14 — pipeline confirmed
               for all higher-rated collections.

  5th: SONG LIST 4 — A Traveler in the Distance
       Reason: Dark content (severe trigger warning) but GX clean. Tests trigger
               warning display. Song List variant confirms Song List AIO pipeline.

After all five deploy cleanly: proceed to second wave.
