+

+  confirmed (tag_positive_confirmation), or one whose review flag they resolved
+  while leaving the tag on (the strip's "Keep tag").
+* Every other `wip_title_soft` row is deleted.
+* Unresolved review flags whose tag is no longer on the image are deleted: the
+  question they ask no longer applies. That is the audit's cards, and any older
+  orphan the same way.
+
+Then `import_settings.wip_soft_title_tagging_enabled` is dropped. The downgrade
+restores the column only; deleted tags are not recreated.
