""" Accepted SEO exceptions — consciously-waived findings for SPECIFIC posts. This is an A-side (auditor) REPORTING filter, NOT a rule change. The shared rule engine (seo_rules.py) still CHECKS every rule on every post; the auditor simply moves a matching violation into a separate "Accepted exceptions (won't fix — documented)" section so the headline "issues to fix" count reflects only genuinely-actionable items. Each waiver carries its REASON (no silent skips). Structure: EXCEPTIONS[rule_family][slug] = "documented reason" Scope: - A waiver applies ONLY to the named rule family for the named slug. Any OTHER rule the same post violates still surfaces as a real issue. - A waiver is matched against a Violation whose `rule` equals the family key or starts with "." — so "internal_links" covers "internal_links.too_few". - If a post later stops violating the rule (e.g. a link is added and it clears the threshold), there's simply no violation to waive — the waiver is moot. Tool C (seo_validate.py, pre-publish validator) deliberately does NOT consult this registry: exceptions are per-EXISTING-post decisions; a brand-new draft is held to the full standard.
