Research direction

Start by reproducing the Visual Studio 2022 build and recording the project, configuration, and dependency setup that produces the missing libboost_program_options-vc143-mt-sgd-x32-1_79.lib error. Inspect the build configuration and Boost build outputs to determine why that library is unavailable; done means the project links successfully without LNK1104.
