Research direction

Start by reproducing the default preset on macOS 27.2 beta 3 and inspect the removemacai status output for the Spatial Photos model lock error. The issue does not identify a source file or test, so trace the preset’s Spatial Photos handling and determine what the current lock means. Done when the preset completes without this error or reports a clear, actionable explanation.

What happened
