 - requirements.txt is provided for convenience.
 - Focus is on clarity and correctness of symbology semantics rather than production-scale performance.
+- **Stretch Goal (Persistent State)**: Persistent storage is implemented as a stretch goal. Mappings are saved and reloaded from disk, maintaining state across restarts.
