Current-contract area: Deprecated Icon name removed
Likely root cause: A host-version upgrade replaces the icon with a blank/unknown glyph.
Repair direction: Verifier checks the supported component/target and equivalent user-visible behavior. Assert equivalent rendered interaction in the current host.
