Description

We generate assignments for some globaly accessible variables, such as ORIGIN_ID and CALLER_ID, by default. To make the counterexample easier to interpret, we can restrict the model to the variables showing up in constraints.

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named; start by tracing where counterexample assignments are generated and how the model's constraints are collected. Done means assignments are limited to variables that appear in those constraints, with the existing counterexample behavior verified.
