+    which matches neither ``isinstance(..., psycopg2.errors.InvalidSchemaName)``
+    nor the ``"invalid schema"`` substring (no space in ``InvalidSchemaName``).

+    ``UserPlaybookRetentionHoldActiveError``: the caller needs a name it can
+    branch on rather than an anonymous ``StorageError``.
+
+    This is a classification, not a softening — for a verified org a missing
