    Announcement text: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    v2.2.0: Core Stabilization and Modernization

    These updates significantly harden the package's internal engine against edge-case bugs and conflicts, with no changes to the user-facing API. Key stability improvements include:

    Prevented Register Collisions: Migrated from shared TeX scratch registers to isolated expl3 namespace variables to prevent conflicts with other packages.

    Eliminated Synchronization Risks: Deduplicated redundant rendering logic for boxes and rules to prevent inconsistent states.

    Optimized I/O & Robustness: Streamlined .aux file writes and fully transitioned legacy TeX primitives to the modern, stable expl3 framework.
