+- **Retire an asset from the interface.** Machines, PCs, printers and measuring
+  tools had no way to take a record out of ShopDB without calling the API, so a
+  scrapped tool stayed in every list and report. The endpoints already existed
+  and were already soft deletes: the record leaves the lists while its
+  calibration history, backups and relationships stay put, and it can be
+  restored by setting `isactive` back. Called Retire rather than Delete for
+  that reason, and the confirm says what is kept. USB is not included - it
+  retires through a status column in the external CMMC database and needs its
+  own decision.
