+    A second, lower-level cache memoizes ``load_compliance_framework_universal``

+    compliance JSON and only then filters by provider, so a per-provider cache

+    provider/test reuse the already-parsed ``ComplianceFramework`` objects (only
+    the cheap ``listdir`` + filtering re-runs). ``_load_jsons_from_dir`` calls
+    ``load_compliance_framework_universal`` as a module global, so patching the
