     2. 文字列連結フィルタ（Phase 178）
        - `num_str = num_str + ch` のような string concat を保守的に reject
        - JsonParser では必須の操作なので段階的に有効化が必要
+       - **設計原則**:
+         - string は「特別扱いのパターン」ではなく、あくまで MirType の 1 種類として扱う。
+         - Pattern2/4 側で型名や変数名（`"result"`, `"num_str"` など）に依存した分岐は入れない。
+         - LoopUpdateAnalyzer の `UpdateKind` / `UpdateRhs` で「安全な更新パターン」を列挙し、
+           そのうち string にも適用可能なものだけを **ホワイトリストで許可**する。
+         - 実際の lowering は CarrierUpdateLowerer / 式 Lowerer 側で行い、JoinIR のループ形（P1–P4）は増やさない。
 - **Phase 183 で LoopBodyLocal 役割分離完了** ✅:
   - **設計**: LoopBodyLocal を 2 カテゴリに分類:
     - **Condition LoopBodyLocal**: ループ条件（header/break/continue）で使用 → Trim 昇格対象
