Implementation Notes
- Unlocking appears to follow rank order from §01 through §07.
- Each lesson awards XP when completed.
- Daily replay provides repeatable XP separate from rank lessons.
- Locked ranks should remain inaccessible until prerequisite progress is completed.
- Capstone and diploma lessons can be used as milestone checks before advancing the user.
