+- Message-family bases wire the validator. Their deprecated `chat_target` parameter and the
+  one on `Scorer` only validate `TARGET_REQUIREMENTS` until removal in 1.4.0; they do not store
+  a target or create a judge. New concrete target-backed scorers compose `TargetJudge`, which
+  validates the requirements. Specialized service scorers validate at their concrete owner.
+- Scorers render prompts, pass the effective expectation explicitly in `JudgmentRequest`, and
+  convert the returned judgment. The judge delegates transport and retries; the response handler
+  owns parsing. Raw `ObservationSource` implementations acquire evidence without criteria.
+- `JudgmentRequest` is data only. Message scorers call `_capture_judgment_evidence` before
+  sending it; other callers supply evidence references directly. The exchange consumes the request
+  without reading the active message or expectation context.
+- Preserve `get_chat_target()` for target discovery. Use `_score_piece_with_expectation_async`
+  for migrated judge consumers; do not replace it with an objective-only hook.
+- A legacy `_score_piece_async` override below a typed scorer raises `TypeError` at construction.
+  Keep this fail-fast check: implicit dispatch through both hooks can skip or repeat custom policy.
