Description
We may not always want to force unmatched taxonomic labels to be resolved to the source-provided labels. It could be helpful to push these into the "unresolved" bucket for potential review.
Example from TreeOfLife-10M re-resolution:
{"uuid": "1375e525-845c-492a-9a9c-5a4476750ec7",
"source_id": "30030699",
"scientific_name": "Giant stick insect",
"phylum": null,
"class": null,
"order": null,
"family": null,
"genus": "Giant",
"species": "Giant stick insect",
"kingdom": null,
"common_name": "Giant stick insect"}
This is an example of improperly labeled source data that was fed into the pipeline. Since there was no resolution profile to which it could match, this was forced through to resolve as provided by the source. In this case, we would not want such a resolution to be considered "resolved".
Alternatively (or additionally), we could consider a common-name match resolution option (all unresolved taxa from TreeOfLife-10M have common name labels, but no other taxa).

Research direction
Start by tracing the pipeline's ForceAcceptedLastResort resolution behavior and how unmatched taxa enter the "unresolved" bucket. Determine how a toggle should affect source-provided fallback labels, and whether common-name matching is in scope. Done means the chosen behavior is explicit and consistently distinguishes resolved from unresolved taxa.
