No <meta> and no <article> declared. The structural plugin assumes article-shaped (the default) and wraps the sections in an implicit article. <article-front> is omitted because there’s no metadata.

Typical authoring path: <meta type=book> at the top with no <book> wrapper. The structural plugin generates <book> + the three region wrappers. Each book-part contains its own <meta> with the promoted <book-part-title>; no <book-part-meta> wrapper.
