+- **/ship's review gate no longer blocks on a Low finding just because the native reviewer wrote it as a numbered item with a nested list.** When the native reviewer wrote `1. **FIXABLE. …**`, then a sub-list, then a closing paragraph with `Severity: Low. Blocks: no.`, the collector split that paragraph into a second record. The numbered item was left with no fields, so its FIXABLE label counted as CRITICAL and stopped /ship until an owner ruled on it (6 findings collected as 9 in one alphaclaw run). The collector now keeps that first closing paragraph on its finding. The join stays narrow so it can't hide a real blocker. It applies only to the native reviewer's items, ends after the first closing paragraph, never takes in a bold-led paragraph, a verdict line, a list item, a heading or a file:line, and never lowers an item that names CRITICAL or P0.
