Most facilities consider a Dualpath pair one physical dual-bay machine.
New site setting dualpath_single_machine (default on): the machines
list, dashboard counts, machines-by-type report, and floor map collapse
each pair to its primary bay (lower assetnumber), with combined
2007 / 2008 labels; pagination totals stay honest. Detail pages remain
per-bay and always show a dual-bay sibling banner linking the partner.
Pair resolution lives in core services and joins the plugin contract
surface (0.8.0 -> 0.9.0).
On the WJ dataset: 31 pairs collapse, machine counts 262 -> 231, map
470 assets. Toggle verified live in both states, left on.
