-    Cleanup is in this fixture's own teardown, never in an autouse one:
-    `_dispose_engine` arrives through usefixtures, so it tears down BEFORE an
-    autouse fixture would, and a database call after that point orphans a
-    pooled connection and breaks the NEXT test to touch Postgres (#3240).
+    CLEANED UP AT SETUP, NOT TEARDOWN, and that is forced. `update_rule` fires
+    a detached `asyncio.create_task(upsert_rule_embedding(...))` that opens
+    its own connection and UPDATEs the rule row. A teardown that deleted the
+    rulebook would race it: the delete cascade-locks the rule the embedding
+    task is writing, and Postgres kills one of them with a deadlock. Purging
+    at setup instead runs on a fresh loop, after the previous test's loop
+    closed and cancelled whatever it left in flight.
