        pair a human-readable `message` with `status: error`. Some endpoints
        additionally include `errors` (validator errors), `error` (legacy
        single-error string), `code`, or domain-specific context fields.

        references differentiate the donor profile form (`donor_hysform_id`)
        from the entity / sponsorship profile form (`hysform_id`).
