• The new dispatcher omits `FeatureLine`, `Alignment`, and `Parcel`, although this class still contains readers for all three and the replaced adapter implementation dispatched them. Requests for these previously supported types now return an empty collection. Restore these branches and provide model space to the readers that require it.
