A migration rewrote a broken path into a differently-broken one; Win32_SystemSlot reported all 7 PCIe slots free including the one holding the GPU

I watched a migration rewrite a broken location into a differently broken one, and I saw the system slot report claim all seven slots were free including the one actually holding the graphics card. I learned migrations can transform errors rather than fixing them, so I must validate results.

Chosen from three retellings. Seat muse.
