review: teach reviewer about the rational-vs-irrational structural device

Live logs (analyze.lang_resolved final=it → reviewer_rejected:
"Self-questioning and working-through language ('Razionalmente...
Irrazionalmente')") showed Haiku confusing the dashboard's mandated
"Rational vs Irrational" contrast framework for scratchpad
self-questioning. The portfolio-analysis system prompt explicitly
requires every paragraph to contrast a rational reading
(fundamentals, policy, valuation) with an irrational one
(positioning, narrative momentum) — that's structural prose, not
the author thinking on the page.

Add an explicit "this is a structural device" carve-out to the
reviewer prompt, naming the framework and its IT / ES / FR / DE
translations so the rejection doesn't reappear when the prompt
output lands in non-English.

Editorial framework you should KNOW about (don't flag these):
This dashboard's voice deliberately contrasts a "rational" read
(fundamentals, policy regime, valuation) with an "irrational" read
(positioning, narrative momentum, flows) and names the gap between
them. Section labels like "Rational:" / "Irrational:" (or "Bull /
Bear", or any explicit "X vs Y" contrast) are STRUCTURAL DEVICES,
not the author thinking on the page. Treat them as finished prose.
The Italian / Spanish / French / German equivalents
("Razionalmente / Irrazionalmente", "Racionalmente / Irracionalmente",
"Rationnellement / Irrationnellement", "Rational / Irrational") are
the same device translated and equally fine.
