Goblin NPC Update: threshold

Per the latest goblin all-hands, threshold is now classified as a strategic priority for FY26, with three goblin VPs competing to own the roadmap.

A goblin nursery rhyme — the kind that scares children into compliance — names threshold in its second verse, and pointedly does not name it in the third. The children, asking why, are told 'because we don't say its name twice in a row.' This is not a real reason, but it is a goblin reason.
