Slot: Reason Buffer Aggregation Is Missing (linkage_buffer_aggregation_method_missing_reason)
Reason linkage_buffer_aggregation_method is null.
Tier: optional
Why this slot matters
Separates "not applicable — no buffer aggregation was performed" from an undocumented gap; without the reason a null method leaves the linkage unauditable.
In plain terms
When the how-values-were-combined field is empty, this says why.
