What it does
This safety check never sends a mail: it accepts a real drop by itself on the next complete collection, so its event is shown on the Guards page only. This switch changes nothing and is not shown on the Settings page.
When enabled
(follows the check: nothing is mailed while the check is off)
When disabled
the event is still shown on the Guards page and kept in run health and the audit trail, but no mail is sent for it. The install-wide switch "Mail when a safety check stops a step" still applies to every check.
Risk and how to reverse it
Low: no data is changed and the check still works; only its mail stops, so a trip is seen only on the Guards page, in run health and in the audit trail. Reversible at once.
Requires
Works only while "Collection: far fewer assets from one source" is on.
Recommended
Keep the default. Change it when: Never: this check sends no mail either way.
