Should you suspend only the mindmap card or the verse cards too?

In Anki you have two kinds of cards per Surah โ€” the mindmap card and the verse-group cards โ€” and you can suspend either kind independently in the Browser.

Suspending only the mindmap card makes sense when the structure still needs work but the verse groups themselves are trustworthy enough to keep reviewing. The map pauses; verse reviews continue.

Suspending both makes sense when you want structural work and verse work to stay tightly coupled โ€” for example you are rebuilding the whole Surah map and don't want verse reviews running on a structure you no longer trust.

This is about honesty without waste. If part of your work is still valid, there is no reason to throw it away. But if verse review should not continue independently of the mindmap state, suspend both until the map is fixed.
