What the records show
From the investigation
What is new
This permits a Steam-specific attributed chain without importing Stripe's itch role. The processors remain unnamed. The existing graph node “Payment-letter addressees” is not their identity. Mastercard's denial and the June 3, 2025 rulebook remain separate retained records. The apparent disagreement could concern who communicated, what was requested, or downstream interpretation of a broad rule; it cannot be resolved by treating either public statement as the missing instruction.
