📖What it means
Forcing a particular worker onto a particular model. A pin may choose within a lane but may never take work OFF its lane — a pin that tries is refused and named, because silently leaving the lane is how spending escapes its budget.
⚖️What it is NOT
The neighbours this word is most often confused with, and the line between them.
Not: Lane
The lane is the rule; a pin is a preference inside it, and the lane outranks it.
Not: Ringfence
A pin chooses a model; a ringfence decides who may reach a paid door at all.
