+//! Same-ledger collateral increase vs slashing guard.
+//!
+//! ## Rationale
+//!
+//! In one ledger, transaction ordering can let a slash ("liquidation") run in the
+//! same block as a collateral increase ("borrow" / top-up). That enables unfair,
+//! sandwich-like outcomes against the bond holder. Recording the ledger sequence
+//! whenever collateral is added and rejecting slashes while it still matches the
+//! current ledger closes that edge case.
+//!
+//! This is **not** a protocol-wide throttle: it only touches slash entry points and
+//! does not limit attestations, withdrawals, or unrelated accounts.
