Event reasons (camera + orange dossier)

Contract

Registered events own the idle camera. EventStrength / TotalScore ranks who wins. Character fill runs only when the pending EventLed queue is empty, and uses an empty Label (task chip only).

Orange dossier reason = the owning event’s Label while the scene is active (InterestDirector.TryGetOwnedReasonCandidate). Quiet grace / inactive dwell clears the reason even if focus has not switched yet.

EventReason

IdleSpectator/EventReason.cs is the sole Label factory for camera candidates. Feeds call typed helpers (Fight, BuildingEat, SeekingLover, …) or Apply(template, a, b, id).

Rules:

Sentence form with names: {a} is fighting {b}, {a} is eating a beehive, {a} is seeking a lover.
Set RelatedUnit when the sentence names a second party.
Never invent stranger subjects for unit-led events.
Never use engine jargon that misstates the action (Consumes a building → eating/foraging via BehConsumeTargetBuilding).

Removed crumbs

Do not author these as orange reasons:

In action
bare Duel / Fight (N) without a named sentence
identity titles (King of X, Leader of X, Lone beetle)
Consumes a building / Damages a building: {a} crumb form

Ownership enum

InterestOwnership (Signal/Ambient) is retained on catalogs for compatibility but ignored by EventFeedUtil.Register. Every registration is EventLed and may own the camera. Strength is the dial (war ~94 beats seek-lover ~45).

Dossier display

UnitDossier.EventLabelBeat keeps the authored sentence. It only rejects identity/weak crumbs and scrubs living stranger names (ReasonNamesStranger / LeadsWithForeignName).
