Finding-U6 from doc/reviewer/usability-audit-2026-05-31.md.
The Finding-D fix (external-audit-2026-05-30) added a clean one-call
gauge-vertex overload:
assign_euclidean_vertex_dof_indices(mesh, maps, gauge_vertex)
But all user-facing code still showed the old verbose manual loop:
auto vit = mesh.vertices().begin();
maps.v_idx[*vit++] = -1;
int idx = 0;
for (; vit != mesh.vertices().end(); ++vit) maps.v_idx[*vit] = idx++;
Replaced in three places:
README.md 'Minimal usage' code block
example_euclidean.cpp Step 3
example_layout.cpp pin_first() helper
