# ── Chinese (zh-TW / zh-CN) entity detection ──────────────────────────
# CJK scripts have no word delimiters — a regex-based extractor can only
# catch names when they have a non-CJK neighbour (whitespace, punctuation,
# newline, or mixed English). Real-world technical notes in zh-TW / zh-CN
# routinely satisfy this: names appear at the start of bullet lines, next
# to English terms, or before full-width punctuation 「」:,。. The patterns
# below target that realistic regime.
