Withdrawal Ends Unsent Work and Never Recalls What Left
Context
Withdrawn work must stop waiting delivery without erasing what people already received.
Decision
Withdrawal and replacement stop unsent notification deliveries and retain affected notices as no longer applicable.
Alternatives Considered
Deleting delivered history would remove the explanation of what staff were told. Ignoring withdrawal would allow stale queued messages to arrive after their business meaning ended.
Consequences
Delivered inbox items stay readable but leave applicable unread totals. A folded notice survives when another open request still supports it. Definition retirement currently bypasses the full withdrawal path.
