    "Type is the row discriminator: simple/variable/grouped/external rows are products, variation rows are variants of the product named in Parent.",
    "Parent on a variation row references the parent by id (id:123) or by SKU, not by row position — resolve it explicitly rather than assuming the variation follows its parent.",
    "Categories packs hierarchy and multiplicity into one cell: 'Clothing > Shirts, Sale' is two categories, one of them nested. Split the multi-value separator first, then the hierarchy separator.",
    "A category name containing a comma is quoted inside the cell, so the multi-value split must itself be RFC-4180 aware.",
    "Images is a comma-separated list of URLs in one cell; the first is the featured image.",
    "Attribute N value(s) may hold several pipe-separated values on a variable product row while a variation row holds exactly one."
