Conditional — here's exactly what makes it claimable: Schedule-specific condition CRITICAL CAVEAT: the Schedule's 92 items are identified by CLASS OF GOODS NAME (e.g. 'Steel Plate', 'Line Pipe') plus an ultra-specific product description -- it does NOT give tariff codes at all. Matching requires (1) the per-class-to-code mapping gap flagged in batch-002 Flag 4, AND (2) an exact description match. tariff_items is a maximally over-inclusive proxy (the full TRQ union); real matching cannot be automated meaningfully without resolving (1) first.
