Description
I provided the prompt:
If I double the Universal Credit child element, how would it affect deep child poverty?
and it only changed the main UC child element, not the higher amount for first children:
This is somewhat reasonable and we should probably make the PolicyEngine UK code clearer.
A more explicit prompt worked (I verified that the deep child poverty impact is the same):
If I double the Universal Credit child element (first and other), how would it affect deep child poverty?

Research direction
Reproduce the two prompts described in the issue and inspect the PolicyEngine UK handling of the Universal Credit child element, including the higher first-child amount. Done means the shorter prompt accounts for both first and other child elements and produces the same deep child poverty impact as the explicit prompt.
