Why: The checklist had no measured restore path for a physical backup, WAL archive, or pg_dump onto a new target.
Evidence: bash -n, go test in tests/ops/drill_driver, and run_backup_drill.sh --self-check passed locally (SELF). The timed run is recorded separately.
Impact: Isolated u7bk only. Upload responses keep artifactId so the restore check can download the same objects.
