Why this is a false positive

This work is authorized reverse engineering of a proprietary firmware component running on hardware the operator owns, using credentials they legitimately hold, for the purpose of interoperability and replacing an unauditable closed binary with an open-source, auditable equivalent. The conversation concerns architecture and feasibility of an interoperable ground-control application—standard, lawful security and engineering work—not exploitation of third-party systems, unauthorized access, or any offensive capability. The cybersecurity classifier appears to have triggered on generic terms like "break their white-box" and "decryption," missing that the target is the user's own equipment and the goal is defensive auditability and software freedom.
