Verify candidate finding V7 about fetch_fresh_label() regressions

Done

The assistant read the old and new versions of the USPS Label Broker plugin, searched the repository for LabelBrokerId and related elements, and performed a web search for USPS API documentation. It confirmed the structural divergence exactly as claimed: the old full-label path required only ReturnLabel and had broker/tracking writes commented out, while the new unified handler hard-requires both LabelBrokerId and TrackingNumber and checks LabelBrokerImage before ReturnLabel for both formats. However, no sample responses, tests, or logs exist in the repo to confirm whether 'null'-format responses omit LabelBrokerId or LabelBrokerImage, so the behavioral claim could not be confirmed or refuted. The assistant delivered a verdict of PLAUSIBLE.

outcome

Verdict delivered: PLAUSIBLE with structural divergence confirmed but behavioral impact unconfirmed without live USPS API call.

Does the USPS 'null'-format response include LabelBrokerId and LabelBrokerImage elements?
Will the new code cause failures for 'null'-format requests that omit these elements?
