UK/US/AU’s old boxes remain enrolled, active and eligible under §7. Emptying one improves its placement ranking: it runs none of an app and has spare memory. A concurrent create—including an already-selected pending create—can therefore refill it after the migration’s final check. Moving its EIP then invalidates the “nothing is reached through that address” premise; terminating it after seven days strands that instance.

Specify a persistent placement exclusion before migration, settle outstanding selections, and verify emptiness before cut-over and termination. The existing [draining exclusion](/home/paulca/amadan.net/carlos/platform/.claude/worktrees/design-region-ha-two-box/internal/boxchoice/boxchoice.go:133) provides a starting point, but this rollout never activates it.

2. **P2 — IE rollback targets a box the placement policy forbids.**
Rollback requires relocating instances back to the old IE box, but [§7 declares its `platform` role never eligible](/home/paulca/amadan.net/carlos/platform/.claude/worktrees/design-region-ha-two-box/docs/superpowers/specs/2026-10-15-region-ha-two-box-regions-design.md:259). Naming it explicitly does not help: [relocation checks target eligibility before starting](/home/paulca/amadan.net/carlos/platform/.claude/worktrees/design-region-ha-two-box/internal/hostrelocate/worker.go:307).

If the group proves unsuitable after migration, restoring the EIP restores ingress but cannot return customer workloads to the retained box. Specify a reversible role/eligibility transition for rollback, and rehearse it with the platform-role restriction enabled.
