/* ---------- Odyssey PROVOCATION: neverInitiates means "unprovoked", not "never" ---------- */

// neverInitiates was made absolute to fix a real player report (see the regression test above), and
// in a SKIRMISH that's exactly right β€” the match resolves on score, so a passive player never needs
// to be attacked. But Odyssey has no clock and no score: a neighbour whose stance had been dragged
// all the way to fully Hostile still sat there forever, so half a galaxy's worlds (neighbourAiProfile
// samples strategies uniformly, and two of four never initiate) read "Hostile" in the HUD and never
// sent anything β€” 0 waves in all 22 such runs of a full-roster soak, docs/odyssey-ai-review.md Β§2.1.
// The flag now means what it says: this AI does not START fights, but it does answer one. Provocation
// is strictly things the PLAYER did β€” destroyed its ships, or is charging a galaxy-winning Gate β€”
// never mere elapsed time, which is what the original bug was.

// A fully hostile Odyssey world with a real home army for a never-initiating AI to commit.
