Research direction

Reproduce the two /therapy/normalize URLs in the issue and compare how their ties are resolved. Read linked issue #299 for related requirements, then identify where the normalization search selects among tied groups. Done means a documented, agreed tie-breaking rule produces the intended result for both example queries.
