Update the educational reference copies of left4me-server@.service and left4me-web.service to match the new hardening composition from the ckn-bw reactor (HARDENING_COMMON + HARDENING_SERVER / HARDENING_WEB). Per-directive comments explain each defense's purpose and the threat it addresses, so a cold reader of this repo can understand the threat model from the unit file alone. Top-of-file note in each reference points at the ckn-bw reactor as the live source; reference is hand-synced. gunicorn ExecStart in the web reference uses placeholder '--workers 4 --threads 4' values; live emission interpolates from metadata. This is the documented divergence between the reference and the deployed unit. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

# left4me gameserver — system unit, one instance per gameserver.

|
# This is the REFERENCE COPY of the deployed unit. The live source is
|
|
# the systemd/units reactor at ~/Projekte/ckn-bw/bundles/left4me/metadata.py
|
|
# (look for 'left4me-server@.service'). Hardening directives live in
|
|
# the HARDENING_SERVER constant near the top of the same file.
|
|
# This file is hand-synced; edit both together.
