Per docs/PHASE_1_6_BIPA_GATES.md Gate 4 + AUDIT_TRAIL_PRD §4 protected- attribute exclusion rule. The lookup tables + inference functions in search.html (3375-3499) and console.html (245-311) were dead code in the rendering path — headshot rendering disabled 2026-04-28 left these functions defined but unused. Removing them forecloses both Title VII discriminatory-feature-engineering AND BIPA biometric-information- derived-from-biometric-identifier arguments. Removed: - FEMALE_NAMES, MALE_NAMES, NAMES_HISPANIC, NAMES_BLACK, NAMES_SOUTH_ASIAN, NAMES_EAST_ASIAN, NAMES_MIDDLE_EASTERN - SURNAMES_HISPANIC, SURNAMES_SOUTH_ASIAN, SURNAMES_EAST_ASIAN, SURNAMES_MIDDLE_EASTERN, SURNAMES_BLACK - guessGenderFromFirstName(), guessEthnicityFromName(), guessEthnicityFromFirstName(), genderFor() From both search.html and console.html. Replacement: deprecation comment block referencing the BIPA gates doc. Verified: zero live consumers anywhere in mcp-server/. Searched for genderFor()/guessEthnicityFromName()/guessEthnicityFromFirstName()/ guessGenderFromFirstName() call sites — none remain. Per J 2026-05-03: this kind of test-code-leaked-into-main is exactly what J wants cleaned up. The face-pool inference was meant as a testing tool for synthetic icon generation but ended up as production-shape inference logic in the customer-facing UI.
