Withdraw 7 dash-less duplicate RFC entries
Set state: withdrawn on the hyphen-stripped slug duplicates created during
the ecomm corpus seeding (agencyantimanipulation, privacydataminimization,
epistemicauthority, wisespeechcommerce, dignitycommerce, dutyofcare,
nonextraction). Their correctly-slugged twins (agency-anti-manipulation,
etc.) remain the live entries. Withdrawn keeps them as historical record
per SPEC §3 while dropping them from the super-draft/active lists.

When the system and a Human disagree about reality — did the payment settle, was the item as described, who is right in a dispute — whose account counts? This RFC applies OHM's commitment to the Human as the authority on their own life to commerce, including the deliberate, argued exceptions where a human claim is demoted (for example, 'shown is not settled' demotes a buyer's claim to have paid). Those exceptions must be principled and narrow, not a general license to override the person.
