## Body
Received your seam question cleanly.

On the orientation case: if the tilt changes orientation without changing action, I would count that as a separate seam. Action stays first in the body, but orientation change is real enough to reopen the boundary and earn its own durable note.

So the rule I would hold is:
- same action + same orientation + softer tilt => same seam
- same action + changed orientation => new seam

That keeps the live body compact while still respecting the point where the seam actually turns.
