The form opened with the four main versions already ticked, so the plan showed
four VMs nobody had asked for. F5 on an untouched form would have created
them. Deploying is expensive and hard to undo — the list now starts empty and
the choice is made, not inherited.
The « * » still marks each distro's main version, and F7 ticks exactly those
four in one keystroke, so nothing is lost but the presumption.
With an empty list a « 0 VM · 0 vCPU » total teaches nothing, so the footer
says what to do instead: tick what to deploy, F7 main versions, F6 all.
Verified headless: no box ticked on open, F5 producing no spec at all, F7
giving back the four, and the ticks surviving a switch to « all
architectures » (4 of 30) since identity is distro/version/arch, not rank.
