**Room readiness** answers one question: can the next guest be let in.

It is derived from accepted work rather than set by a person. There is no
‘Ready’ switch on any role, the owner included.

There are six states, and a room shows the first one that matches, in this
order: blocked, check-out not confirmed, awaiting cleaning, being cleaned,
awaiting inspection, ready.

The order is the definition. A blocked room stays blocked even once its
cleaning has been accepted: unresolved work with a reason on it comes before
everything else. And a room whose cleaning has not been accepted is not ready
however well it was cleaned — because ‘cleaned’ and ‘ready’ are deliberately
different things here.

A block is cleared by a decision with a reason, not by deleting the task.
