Why this matters

The hinge-reveal that Robin (not the boss) is the irreplaceable poneglyph-reader retroactively reframes the whole conquest as upstream-driven by her capability. Her urgency reading as personal rather than mission-aligned is the first crack in the Crocodile-uses-Robin frame — and the seed of Robin-uses-Crocodile.
