 # @BRIEF Local language detection powered by lingua-language-detector (no LLM).
 #         Provides fast, non-LLM language identification for source text rows,
 #         reducing LLM token costs by pre-detecting same-language rows and
 #         removing language detection from translation prompts.
 # @LAYER Plugin
-# @RELATION DEPENDS_ON -> [lingua]
 # @RATIONALE LLM-based language detection wastes tokens on every row. lingua is a
 #            pure-Python library (pre-built wheel) that runs ~0.1ms/call with ~98%
 #            accuracy, vs ~90% for LLM-based detection at ~100x+ cost.
