_KEY_RATE_MARKET_SPREAD_PP was a 0.0 placeholder, so §7.9 affordability payments
used the bare CBR key_rate (~14.5%), understating borrower cost and OVERSTATING
affordability. Calibrate to 4.5pp from the prod anchor (macro_indicator
mortgage_rate_primary_domrf 19.125% @ 2026-04-19 vs key_rate ~14.5% -> observed
~4.6pp, rounded conservatively; inside the typical RF 3-5pp band), so
rate_used = key_rate + 4.5 ~= 19% matches the directly-observed market primary
mortgage rate. Makes affordability LESS optimistic / more accurate. Docs + tests
updated to the symbolic spread (new regression anchor pins spread==4.5 and
key_rate 14.5 -> ~19.0); rate_kind/graceful-fallback semantics unchanged.
Forecasting suite 841 passed; ruff clean.
