In scope: browsing nearby in-stock items, placing and reserving an order, matching a store and a courier, and live delivery tracking. Out of scope: payment processing internals, and multi-store orders or item substitution, covered briefly as variants.

State the decision, connect it to a requirement, and name the tradeoff. Keep the design focused on the workload in the prompt.
