Research direction

Locate the Distribution implementation and the LocalArrays handling first. Trace how empty local arrays are currently accepted or used, then inspect nearby tests for the expected validation pattern. Done means the Distribution check prevents the recurring empty-LocalArrays problem and the relevant behavior is covered by a test.
