Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported lifecycle: deploy a REST API with policies, inspect the policy engine config dump, undeploy the API, and inspect the dump again. Trace the API deployment and undeployment path until you can identify why policies remain when every API's policy chain is empty. Done means the stale policies are cleared from the policy engine config dump after undeployment.
