Across four WordPress plugins and 1,164 PHP files there is exactly one deserialization site, and
it is spelled maybe_unserialize. The bare token never reached it, and correctly so: the sink
matcher is word-bounded and the character before unserialize inside maybe_unserialize is a word
character. A token a repository never spells is a family that can never answer, which is what the
2026-09-19 census recorded for this one. maybe_unserialize is a real entry point rather than a
safe wrapper: it calls unserialize whenever the string looks serialized.

Also adds the prototype control. That family had never established anything on any subject, and
its only census report was the word `set` inside a comment. No repository available to this
project contains the mechanism: the only first-party matches on the Node subject are
app.set("view engine", "html") and its sibling, Express settings whose arguments are literals. So
the control demonstrates what the family can do, on a merge of the request body into an object,
and asserts the Express setting is not reported alongside it.

Corrects the PHP record under task 13.2. joernio/joern#6281, this project's own report, is a PHP
`global` inside a closure producing a node with two AST parents, which made the dataflow overlay
throw and cost the whole graph. It was filed against 4.0.623 and fixed by #6270 in v4.0.625,
which the image has pinned since before any measurement recorded here. Verified today on the real
trigger rather than on a transcription of the repro: PMPro's includes/fields.php, the file the
original bisection found, builds and applies the default overlays cleanly on 4.0.625 and on
4.0.631 alike. What remains under that task is a runtime failure and must not be re-diagnosed as
the graph bug.

1,417 tests pass, eighteen skipped.
