Risk summary
9 Critical, 2 High, 0 Medium, 0 Low. All 11 doctrines require mandatory human theologian review. This continues the pattern established in the Matthew package (all doctrines routed to theologian review), reflecting the density of Christological material throughout the Gospels relative to the epistles already generated for German.
Coverage confirmation
All 11 doctrines are drawn from the full 16-chapter sweep, distributed across chapters 1, 4-5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 13, 14, 15, and 16. No major section of the Gospel contributed zero doctrines.
