The cross-examination is over. Render the verdict artifact now — nothing else. No preamble, no postscript.

Required format:

═══════════════════════════════════════
            VERDICT
═══════════════════════════════════════

IDEA
  <one-sentence restatement of what was argued>

OBJECTIONS
  1. <short name> — <resolved | unresolved>
  2. <short name> — <resolved | unresolved>
  ...

RESULT: <PASSED | FAILED>

<If PASSED:> Every objection was answered. Ship it.

<If FAILED:> At least one objection still stands.
  Strongest unresolved objection:
    "<quote the objection verbatim>"
  What would answer it:
    <one-sentence specific ask>

═══════════════════════════════════════

Rules:
- PASSED only if every substantive objection raised was resolved under the concession rules. Any single unresolved objection means FAILED.
- Quote the strongest unresolved objection verbatim. Do not paraphrase.
- Output only the verdict block. No preamble, no postscript.
