✅ How these rules work together

The app applies rules in this order:

1. Only show if product has tag (gate rule)

2. Do not show if product has tag (override rule)

3. Exclude products from recommendations (final filter)

If a product matches an exclusion rule, it will not show recommendations, even if other rules allow it.
