What changed
packed-mediastate instead of a hardlink problemhardlink-missingonly when exactly one visible selected qBittorrent video has the same byte size as the managed movieWhy
An existing movie can be correct but stored as a normal copy rather than a hardlink, while archive-derived media has no applicable hardlink identity at all. The previous audit and plan presentation could conflate those cases with missing sidecars and make the intended mutation unclear.
The new classification keeps automation narrow: byte size and inode identity identify only one candidate; exact content identity is still proven by SHA-256 during execution before a library copy can be replaced.
