Research direction

Start by locating ReactNativeOptions and the backward-compatibility and deprecation-warning logic. Trace the native bridge forwarding on Android and iOS, then find all tests and changelog conventions that reference sendDefaultPii. Done means the option, bridging, warning, and test references are removed, with a changelog entry describing the breaking change and migration path.
