# ADR 001: No paywall fiction in UI copy

Status: accepted (Phase 1 cleanup).

## Context

Scenario data carries a `premium` flag, settings buttons read "Full 3D —
Premium", and the catalog badged rows PREMIUM/FREE — but `ScenarioSelected`
and `ModeSelected` applied unconditionally. Nothing was ever locked; the
copy described a product that did not exist.

## Decision

Remove every user-facing premium claim (button suffixes, row badges,
paywall section copy about locked views). Keep the `premium` data field,
documented as reserved for a future entitlement gate.

## Consequences

- If a real paywall arrives, gate it in exactly two places
  (`ScenarioSelected`, `ModeSelected`) with a fail-closed entitlement
  check — do not re-sprinkle badges.
- Until then, `premium: true` scenarios load like any other, and the
  catalog integrity test does not assert on the flag.
