Recursion / re-entry notes
No runtime re-entry. The operome is a single forward evaluation: inputs → act computable(s) → Tatbestand composite → prohibition verdict. Attempt and preparation, where the section provides for them, are separate operomes, not re-entries.
Circularity check
• [PromotionOfSexualActsOfMinors] depends on [PersonUnder18], [Para2Acts], [Para2], [FacilitatedActs], [FacilitationMeans], [PersonUnder16], [Para1] plus composed [SexualActs]; none refer back to [PromotionOfSexualActsOfMinors]. No definitional cycle.
• Each computable reduces to input Booleans; the graph is a DAG and topologically sortable. Tristate is monotone: any unknown input holds the composite at unknown rather than forcing a verdict.
• Composition by canonical name is acyclic: the composed operome is read once and does not reference this one back.

Flags
Scope Paragraph 1 sentence 1, facilitating the acts of or on a person under sixteen by mediation or by granting or procuring an opportunity; paragraph 2, instructing a person under eighteen to perform remunerated acts involving a third party, or facilitating such acts by mediation. The carer proviso (paragraph 1, sentences 2 and 3) and the attempt in (3) struck per the marked-up source.
Translation note The draft English layer inverts the offence: it makes {Actor} the performer (“performs sexual acts on a person under the age of sixteen”), where the German (“Vorschub leistet”) makes {Actor} the facilitator of acts performed by or on the minor. The source column follows the German; the actor's conduct is {Facilitates} by [FacilitationMeans], over the three coordinated act objects in [FacilitatedActs].
Carer proviso struck The statutory carve-out for the person entitled to care, and its gross-violation counter-exception, were struck whole in the markup and are not encoded; the strike is recorded here so the omission is deliberate, not an oversight.
Two age thresholds [PersonUnder16] governs paragraph 1, [PersonUnder18] paragraph 2; limits as named-number variables, comparison in the computable.
Facilitation reused {Facilitates} and {Mediation} carry the same Merkmal in both paragraphs; paragraph 2's second modality is their conjunction.
Sexual act [SexualActs] (§184h, by name) for every occurrence.
Treatment §180 is Human-awareness-tagged. Encoded on its objective elements per the §174 precedent.

• Each computable reduces to input Booleans; the graph is a DAG and topologically sortable. Tristate is monotone: any unknown input holds the composite at unknown rather than forcing a verdict.

Flags
Whole section Paragraph 1, the commercial establishment kept in dependence; paragraph 2, the under-eighteen accommodation variant and the encourage-or-exploit variant for persons housed for prostitution. No attempt provision; nothing further struck beyond the penalties.
Ten-rule build {KeptInDependence} spans the coordinated dependence objects {PersonalDependence} and {EconomicDependence} ([DependenceType]); {Provides} spans the three coordinated accommodation objects ([AccommodationType]); {Commercially} is an inline qualifier variable (rules 1, 2, 4, 10).
Accommodation reused {Provides}, {Dwelling} and {ForProstitution} carry the same Merkmal in both legs of paragraph 2; leg 2 narrows to the dwelling alternative, as the German does (Wohnung).
No sexual-act term §180a turns on prostitution and dependence, not on the §184h term; no [SexualActs] reference arises.
Strikes The penalty in (1) and “The same penalty shall apply” in (2) (“Ebenso wird bestraft”) struck in the markup only; the source column is clean.
Treatment §180a is Human-awareness-tagged. Encoded on its objective elements; exploitation in fact and the state of dependence are evaluative at the margin and escalate in application.

Reconstruction from the substrate
Committed by any person (the actor) who: ((({Actor} exploits {Person} and {Person} is engaged in prostitution) or (for the sake of financial gain and ({Actor} supervises {Person} in the practice of prostitution or ({Actor} determines circumstances of the practice of prostitution and (the place or the time or the extent or other circumstances)) or {Actor} takes measures intended to prevent {Person} from giving up prostitution))) and ({Actor} maintains a relationship with {Person} in that regard and the relationship goes beyond the individual instance)) or ({Actor} impairs the independence of {Person} and (the personal independence of {Person} or the economic independence of {Person}) and on a commercial basis and {Actor} promotes the engagement of {Person} in prostitution and through the arrangement of sexual intercourse and ({Actor} maintains a relationship with {Person} in that regard and the relationship goes beyond the individual instance)).
Assembled only from the variable surface forms (including the actor) and the computable structure carried in the XSD, not from the source column. It should read as the offence. This is the recoverability test: the law is reverse-derivable from the substrate.

Recursion / re-entry notes
No runtime re-entry. The operome is a single forward evaluation: inputs → act computable(s) → Tatbestand composite → prohibition verdict. Attempt and preparation, where the section provides for them, are separate operomes, not re-entries.
Circularity check
• [Pimping] depends on [ImpairedIndependence], [RelationshipTail], [Para2], [Leg1], [DeterminedCircumstances], [Leg2Conduct], [Leg2], [Para1]; none refer back to [Pimping]. No definitional cycle.
• Each computable reduces to input Booleans; the graph is a DAG and topologically sortable. Tristate is monotone: any unknown input holds the composite at unknown rather than forcing a verdict.

Scope Paragraph 1, the exploitation leg and the financial-gain control leg, both conditioned on the continuing relationship; paragraph 2, the impairment-by-commercial-promotion variant. Paragraph 3 (the spouse and civil-partner extension) struck whole per the marked-up source.
Ten-rule build {Determines} spans the four coordinated circumstance objects ({Place}, {TimeOfPractice}, {Extent}, {OtherCircumstances}, disjunction in [DeterminedCircumstances]); {Impairs} spans {PersonalIndependence} and {EconomicIndependence} ([ImpairedIndependence]); {ForFinancialGain} and {Commercially} are inline qualifier variables (rules 1, 2, 4, 10).
Relationship tail shared “maintains a relationship that goes beyond the individual instance” conditions both paragraph 1 legs and paragraph 2; [RelationshipTail] = {MaintainsRelationship} and {BeyondIndividualInstance} is consumed by both (one variable per Merkmal). Its attachment to both legs of paragraph 1 follows the German sentence structure, where the clause follows the numbered list.

Scope Paragraph 1, abuse of a person under eighteen by exploiting a situation of distress, with the direct and third-party conduct legs; paragraph 2, the over-eighteen remunerated variant. Paragraphs 3 to 6 (the over-twenty-one capacity variant, attempt, the application requirement and the judicial discretion) struck whole per the marked-up source.
Translation note The draft English layer of (1) leg 1 reads “or causes them to perform sexual acts on them” for “oder an sich von ihr vornehmen lässt”; as in §177, the German modality is having the acts performed by the person on the actor. The source column carries that reading and the markup binds the words to {HasVictimPerformOnActor}.
Actor age as threshold Paragraph 2 conditions on the actor's age: [ActorOver18] = {ActorAge} > {AgeLimit18}, the comparator carrying the statutory wording (“über achtzehn Jahren”) literally; whether “over” includes the eighteenth birthday itself is an interpretive question and escalates.
Conduct variables shared {Abuses}, {PerformsOnVictim} and {HasVictimPerformOnActor} carry the same Merkmal in both paragraphs (one variable per Merkmal); paragraph 2 adds {ForRemuneration} and drops the distress element.
Sexual act [SexualActs] (§184h, by name) for every occurrence.
Strikes The penalty in (1), “Similarly” and “shall be punished” in (2) (“Ebenso wird ... bestraft”) and the whole of (3) to (6) struck in the markup only; the source column is clean.
Treatment §182 is Human-awareness-tagged. Encoded on its objective elements; abuse and exploitation of distress in fact are evaluative at the margin and escalate in application.

Whole section Sentence 1, the dissemination leg and the trade leg over content depicting violence or human-animal sexual acts; the attempt (sentence 2) struck per the marked-up source.
Translation note The draft English layer of sentence 1 lacks the main clause (the German penalty clause carries it); the struck penalty is rendered at the head of the markup so the sentence reads, and the source column carries the text as published.
Ten-rule build The content qualification is {PornographicContent} with the coordinated subject objects {DepictsViolence} and {DepictsHumanAnimalActs} ([ContentSubject]); the eight trade verbs are each a rule, disjoined in [TradeVerbs]; “ein- oder auszuführen” splits into {UndertakesToImport} and {UndertakesToExport}; the purpose alternatives are coordinated in [Purpose] (rules 1, 2, 10).
Strikes The penalty and the attempt sentence struck in the markup only; the source column is clean.

Recursion / re-entry notes
No runtime re-entry. The operome is a single forward evaluation: inputs → act computable(s) → Tatbestand composite → prohibition verdict. Attempt and preparation, where the section provides for them, are separate operomes, not re-entries.
Circularity check
• [ChildPornographyOffences] depends on [NonRealContent], [ExemptDuty], [Child], [DepictionA], [DepictionB], [DepictionC], [ChildPornography], [RealOrRealistic], [Para3], [TradeVerbs], [Leg1], [Leg2], [Leg3], [Exemption5], [InvestigativeNecessity], [Exemption6], [Purpose4], [Leg4] plus composed [SexualActs]; none refer back to [ChildPornographyOffences]. No definitional cycle.
• Each computable reduces to input Booleans; the graph is a DAG and topologically sortable. Tristate is monotone: any unknown input holds the composite at unknown rather than forcing a verdict.
• Composition by canonical name is acyclic: the composed operome is read once and does not reference this one back.

Scope Paragraph 1 sentence 1, the four offence legs; paragraph 3, the access and possession offence; paragraphs 5 and 6, the two statutory exemptions, encoded live. Struck per the marked-up source: paragraph 1 sentence 2 (the lower range for non-real content), paragraph 2 (the commercial and gang aggravation), paragraph 4 (attempt) and paragraph 7 (seizure).
Child pornography definition authored here §184b(1)(1) defines child pornography: [ChildPornography] = {PornographicContent} and ([DepictionA] or [DepictionB] or [DepictionC]). Depiction a is [SexualActs] by, on or in front of a person under fourteen ({ActsByChild}, {ActsOnChild}, {ActsInFrontOfChild}; the child threshold as [Child] = {PersonAge} < {AgeLimit14}); depiction b is the wholly-or-partially-unclothed child in a sexually suggestive posture; depiction c the sexually provocative depiction of naked genitals or buttocks, with {SexuallyProvocative} as an inline qualifier. §176e and §184e consume this definition by name.
Unternehmen carried as attempt-language The German “es unternimmt” (a term of art under §11(1)(6): the undertaking counts as the completed act) appears in the English as “attempts to”; encoded as the {UndertakesTo...} verbs, so the substrate carries the completed-by-undertaking reading, recorded here.
Exemptions scoped per leg (rule 8) [Exemption5] (state tasks, agreement tasks, official or professional duties) negates leg 2 and paragraph 3, exactly as (5) states. [Exemption6] (investigative official acts over content that is neither actual nor produced from a real child's or young person's image, where clarification would otherwise be futile or significantly impeded) negates legs 1, 2 and 4. The composite applies each as “and not” on the named legs only; leg 3 (production of actual-event content) is exempted by neither.
Subsidiarity of leg 4 “provided that the act is not punishable under point 3” is {PunishableUnderPoint3} is false inside [Leg4] (rule 12).

Recursion / re-entry notes
No runtime re-entry. The operome is a single forward evaluation: inputs → act computable(s) → Tatbestand composite → prohibition verdict. Attempt and preparation, where the section provides for them, are separate operomes, not re-entries.
Circularity check
• [YouthPornographyOffences] depends on [Youth], [DepictionC], [DepictionA], [DepictionB], [YouthPornography], [Leg3], [RealOrRealistic], [TradeVerbs], [Purpose4], [Leg4], [Leg1], [NonRealContent], [Leg2], [Para3], [ExemptDuty], [Exemption5], [InvestigativeNecessity], [Exemption6] plus composed [SexualActs]; none refer back to [YouthPornographyOffences]. No definitional cycle.
• Each computable reduces to input Booleans; the graph is a DAG and topologically sortable. Tristate is monotone: any unknown input holds the composite at unknown rather than forcing a verdict.
• Composition by canonical name is acyclic: the composed operome is read once and does not reference this one back.

Flags
Scope Paragraph 1, the four offence legs over youth pornography; paragraph 3, the access and possession offence (actual events only); paragraph 6, the imported §184b exemptions, encoded live by restatement. Struck per the marked-up source: paragraph 2 (the commercial and gang aggravation), paragraph 4 (the personal-use consent exemption) and paragraph 5 (attempt).
Translation note The draft English layer renders “jugendpornographischer Inhalt” as “child pornography” throughout §184c, which is wrong in substance: this section governs youth pornography, defined over a person who is fourteen but not yet eighteen years old. The source column is rendered as “youth pornography” and to the German age formula at every occurrence.
Youth pornography definition authored here [YouthPornography] = {PornographicContent} and ([DepictionA] or [DepictionB] or [DepictionC]), the three depictions mirroring §184b(1)(1) with [Youth] = {PersonAge} >= {AgeLimit14} and {PersonAge} < {AgeLimit18} (“vierzehn, aber noch nicht achtzehn Jahre alten Person” as a two-comparator computable). §184e consumes this definition by name.
Narrower content qualifications than §184b Leg 2 requires actual or realistic events; leg 3 and paragraph 3 require actual events only ([RealOrRealistic] versus {DepictsActualEvents}). This asymmetry is in the statute and is carried exactly.
Personal-use consent exemption struck (deliberate) Paragraph 4, the statutory exemption for content produced exclusively for personal use with the consent of the persons depicted, was struck whole in the markup and is not encoded; recorded so the omission reads as an editorial decision, not a build error.
Mutatis mutandis encoded by restatement (rule 8) “Section 184b(5) to (7) shall apply mutatis mutandis” is restated locally with the corresponding scope mapping: [Exemption5] negates paragraph 1 point 2 and paragraph 3; [Exemption6] negates paragraph 1 points 1, 2 and 4, per the §184b pattern. §184b(7) (seizure) is a consequence and does not compile; the reference to it is carried in the source only.
Subsidiarity of leg 4 “in so far as the act is not punishable under point 3” is {PunishableUnderPoint3} is false inside [Leg4] (rule 12).

Whole section Paragraph 1, organising a child or youth pornographic performance; paragraph 2, attending one; the imported §184b(5) points 1 and 3 exemption applied to attendance. The penalty references (“Under Section 184b(1) shall also be punished” and their three counterparts) struck per the marked-up source as sentencing references.
Mutatis mutandis encoded by restatement “Section 184b(5)(1) and (3) shall apply mutatis mutandis” is restated locally: [Exemption] = {ServesExclusively} and ({StateTasks} or {OfficialDuties} or {ProfessionalDuties}). Note the statute imports points 1 and 3 only; the agreement-tasks ground of §184b(5)(2) does not apply here. The exemption is applied to paragraph 2 (attendance), the conduct the referencing sentence governs; this scope mapping is the interpretive step the mutatis clause requires and is recorded here (rule 8).
Performance terms “kinderpornographische Darbietung” and “jugendpornographische Darbietung” are status predicates on the performance ({ChildPornographicPerformance}, {YouthPornographicPerformance}); the child and youth pornography definitions are authored in §184b(1)(1) and §184c(1)(1) respectively and resolve there by name.
Strikes The four penalty references struck in the markup only; the source column is clean.
Treatment §184e is Operomise-tagged.

Flags
Whole section The single-sentence group offence: encouraging an offence by participating in a group that besets a person, conditioned on a group member committing a §177 or §184i offence and on subsidiarity.
Translation note The draft English layer (“which pressures another person to commit a criminal offence against them”) inverts the German: “die eine andere Person zur Begehung einer Straftat an ihr bedrängt” means the group besets the person for the commission of an offence against her, by group members, not that the person is pressed into committing one. The source column carries that reading.
Subsidiarity as a negative condition “not punishable by a more severe penalty under other provisions” is encoded as {MoreSeverePenaltyElsewhere} is false in the composite, with the markup binding the statutory words to the is-false span (rules 8, 12).
Condition on a third party's act {MemberCommits177} and {MemberCommits184i} are objective conditions about a group member's completed offence, resolved by name against the §177 operome and, for §184i, against a provision outside the encoded corpus; the §184i leg therefore resolves only as an input until §184i is encoded.
Strikes The penalty struck in the markup only; the source column is clean.
Treatment §184j is Human-awareness-tagged; whether participation encouraged the offence in fact is evaluative and escalates.

Reconstruction from the substrate
Committed by any person (the actor) who: (((the {Replica} is a replica of a child or the {Replica} is a replica of a part of a child's body) and the {Replica} is by its nature intended for the performance of sexual acts) and ({Actor} produces the {Replica} or {Actor} offers the {Replica} or {Actor} advertises the {Replica})) or (((the {Replica} is a replica of a child or the {Replica} is a replica of a part of a child's body) and the {Replica} is by its nature intended for the performance of sexual acts) and ({Actor} trades in the {Replica} or {Actor} transports the {Replica} for this purpose through the territorial scope of this Act)) or ((((the {Replica} is a replica of a child or the {Replica} is a replica of a part of a child's body) and the {Replica} is by its nature intended for the performance of sexual acts) and without engaging in trade and ({Actor} sells the {Replica} or {Actor} dispenses the {Replica} or {Actor} otherwise places the {Replica} on the market)) and it is not the case that (the act serves exclusively the lawful fulfilment of the referenced duties and (state functions or official duties or professional duties))) or ((((the {Replica} is a replica of a child or the {Replica} is a replica of a part of a child's body) and the {Replica} is by its nature intended for the performance of sexual acts) and ({Actor} acquires the {Replica} or {Actor} possesses the {Replica} or {Actor} transports the {Replica} through the territorial scope of this Act)) and it is not the case that (the act serves exclusively the lawful fulfilment of the referenced duties and (state functions or official duties or professional duties))).
Assembled only from the variable surface forms (including the actor) and the computable structure carried in the XSD, not from the source column. It should read as the offence. This is the recoverability test: the law is reverse-derivable from the substrate.

↓
VERDICT (PrimeRule)
├─ [ChildLikeSexDollOffences] is true → objective conditions realised → conduct PROHIBITED (subject to permissions / exceptions)
└─ [ChildLikeSexDollOffences] is false → not realised
Recursion / re-entry notes
No runtime re-entry. The operome is a single forward evaluation: inputs → act computable(s) → Tatbestand composite → prohibition verdict. Attempt and preparation, where the section provides for them, are separate operomes, not re-entries.
Circularity check
• [ChildLikeSexDollOffences] depends on [QualifyingReplica], [Leg1], [Para2], [ExemptDuty], [Exemption4], [Leg2], [Leg3]; none refer back to [ChildLikeSexDollOffences]. No definitional cycle.
• Each computable reduces to input Booleans; the graph is a DAG and topologically sortable. Tristate is monotone: any unknown input holds the composite at unknown rather than forcing a verdict.

Flags
Scope Paragraph 1 sentence 1, the three placing-on-the-market legs over the qualifying replica; paragraph 2, the acquisition, possession and transport offence; paragraph 4, the state-functions exemption, encoded live and scoped to paragraph 1 point 3 and paragraph 2 as the statute states. Struck per the marked-up source: paragraph 1 sentence 2 (subsidiarity to §184b), paragraph 3 (attempt), paragraph 5 (confiscation) and the notification footnote.
Replica definition authored here [QualifyingReplica] = ({ReplicaOfChild} or {ReplicaOfChildBodyPart}) and {IntendedForSexualActs}; the nature-intended element is an objective property of the object (“nach ihrer Beschaffenheit ... bestimmt”), not a mental element, and compiles. Points 2 and 3 and paragraph 2 consume the definition by reference (“a replica as described in point 1”).
Open question: live reference to struck text Paragraph 2's closing sentence, “Paragraph 1, sentence 2, shall apply mutatis mutandis”, is live in the markup, but the referenced sentence (the subsidiarity to §184b) is itself struck. The sentence is carried in the markup unencoded; if the strike of (1) sentence 2 stands, this reference has no compilable content and should on consistency grounds be struck as well. Confirm before external circulation.
Leg 3 qualifier “ohne Handel zu treiben” is the inline qualifier {NotTrading} gating the three market verbs {Sells} (veräußert), {Dispenses} (abgibt) and {PlacesOnMarket} (sonst in Verkehr bringt).
Exemption scoping (rule 8) [Exemption4] = {ServesExclusively} and ({StateTasks} or {OfficialDuties} or {ProfessionalDuties}) negates leg 3 and paragraph 2 only; legs 1 and 2 are not exempted, and the composite applies the negation per leg.
Strikes Penalties, (1) sentence 2, (3), (5) and the EU notification footnote struck in the markup only; the source column is clean.
Treatment §184l is Human-awareness-tagged; whether a replica has a child-like appearance is evaluative at the margin and escalates.
