Research direction

Read StyleMenuBuilder.kt, starting with addLoadoutListener (~287–291) and getChildren (369–383). Trace how the Miscellaneous loadout selects styles and how internal/trNote is handled. Done when the Transcriber's Note appears in the Miscellaneous apply list and can be applied with its Alt key.

Description

Problem

File StyleMenuBuilder.kt — addLoadoutListener (~287–291) and getChildren (369–383)

Transcriber's Note missing from the apply list.** The Transcriber's Note style lives at internal/trNote, outside the miscellaneous/ id prefix that getChildren("miscellaneous") matches, so it's never included in the Miscellaneous loadout's apply list — no Alt key applies
