decideSoftwareRequest serves both approve and deny.
ONE HANDLER, TWO MOUNTS, because the two differ in exactly two places - whether an install is provisioned and what the ticket message says - and everything else about them is identical: the same guard, the same idempotence, the same ticket transition. Two handlers would be two copies of the ordering rules, and the ordering is the part that matters.
IDEMPOTENT AND IT PRESERVES THE ORIGINAL DECIDER. A request that is already decided is answered with the stored row and NOTHING is re-run: no second install, no second ticket message, no rewriting of who made the call. A retried POST from a flaky phone must not turn one approval into two installs.
