WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why resign_board_game needs a policy

Resigning a game is a reversible write action in the sense that it modifies game state (concedes the game), but it does not delete data. While the resignation cannot be undone, it is a standard game action rather than data destruction — the game record remains intact. It has a medium severity since it terminates an ongoing game on behalf of the user.
