## Important Interpretation Rules
- Same-day does not itself guarantee an exact time.
- Expedited does not always mean the fastest physically possible method.
- A delivery window is not an appointment.
- Transit time begins after loading and release from pickup.
- Physical vehicle fit does not prove that freight can be safely loaded, secured, unloaded, or moved to final placement.
- Flight landed does not mean airport cargo is available.
- Consumer navigation is not a substitute for truck-appropriate routing or site-access instructions.
- Customer-requested vehicle/service is a starting point, not a substitute for freight and site validation.
- Safety always outranks customer preference.
- All hazmat requires human review; hazmat over 1,000 lb is not accepted under the stated public operating model.
- Declared value over $100,000 requires additional insurance review/arrangement.
- Terminology aliases improve retrieval but do not prove operational equivalence.

## Usage Boundary
The public Royal corpus can identify likely service paths, relevant conditions, equipment, vehicles, handling factors, missing information and possible alternatives. It can provide planning estimates, not guarantees. It does not bind pricing, promise live availability, accept shipments, guarantee deadlines, approve hazardous/unsafe handling, override human safety judgment, dispatch vehicles, or promise unverified certifications/restricted access. Shipment-specific confirmation remains required.

For ordinary service discovery, refer to the provider as Royal unless a legal/entity-specific distinction is necessary. Do not autonomously assign a shipment to a particular legal entity.
