  "details": "## Summary\nIn `src/purify.ts:1117-1123`, `ADD_TAGS` as a function (via `EXTRA_ELEMENT_HANDLING.tagCheck`) bypasses `FORBID_TAGS` due to short-circuit evaluation.\n\nThe condition:\n```\n!(tagCheck(tagName)) \u0026\u0026 (!ALLOWED_TAGS[tagName] || FORBID_TAGS[tagName])\n```\nWhen `tagCheck(tagName)` returns `true`, the entire condition is `false` and the element is kept \u2014 `FORBID_TAGS[tagName]` is never evaluated.\n\n## Inconsistency\nThis contradicts the attribute-side pattern at line 1214 where `FORBID_ATTR` explicitly wins first:\n```\nif (FORBID_ATTR[lcName]) { continue; }\n```\nFor tags, FORBID should also take precedence over ADD.\n\n## Impact\nApplications using both `ADD_TAGS` as a function and `FORBID_TAGS` simultaneously get unexpected behavior \u2014 forbidden tags are allowed through. Config-dependent but a genuine logic inconsistency.\n\n## Suggested Fix\nCheck `FORBID_TAGS` before `tagCheck`:\n```\nif (FORBID_TAGS[tagName]) { /* remove */ }\nelse if (tagCheck(tagName) || ALLOWED_TAGS[tagName]) { /* keep */ }\n```\n\n## Affected Version\nv3.3.3 (commit 883ac15)",
