The hand-written table understood "какая погода в X" for six values of X.
Ask about Kazan or Tbilisi and the city was dropped silently and answered for
the default location — a correct-sounding answer about the wrong place.
The table is gone. internal/weather already calls Open-Meteo's geocoding
endpoint on every lookup, so the place he named goes straight there and any
place it knows is a place he can ask about. He speaks the prepositional case,
so locationCandidates reverses the two endings that cover most of it: a final
"е" is a nominative "а" or nothing, a final "и" is a soft sign. A wrong
candidate finds no city; it never invents one.
A place the geocoder does not have now reads as "не знаю такого города"
rather than as a provider outage or, worse, as the default city's weather.
ErrLocationUnknown is what carries that apart.
"в" followed by a room or a day word is still the default location. Those
questions are answered by the house sensors and the calendar, not by
Open-Meteo, and they must not be read as a city.
