Specification
The requirement exactly as authored — its complete prose text and, where present, the formal FRETish sentence it compiles to.
When Set is called with a multi-level path where intermediate levels exist but the leaf does not, the parser shall correctly create the missing nested structure and insert the value at the correct location.
the parser shall always satisfy !set_target_is_nested_in_existing_structure | set_performs_nested_mutation_correctly

Rationale & tags
Why this requirement exists, and how it is categorised.
Nested mutation through createInsertComponent exercises depth-tracking logic that determines whether to append inside an existing structure or overwrite. This is a distinct behavior from flat key insertion.
Verification & provenance
How this requirement was checked: the review trail, edit history, and the machine-analysis status terms (each ⓘ explains what it means).

Browse the catalogueSet on path [a][b] where a exists but b does not overwrites the sibling [a][c] value or builds malformed JSON like {"a":{"b":1}} missing a comma, silently corrupting the document.
