Synthetic temperate Retisol on loess over clay-rich substrate: bleached E with glossic tongues penetrating the underlying argic Bt. By construction retic_properties passes via the "glossic" designation pattern; argic also passes (this is correct – Retisols are argic + retic features, and the WRB key tests RT before AC/LX/AL/LV). The Bt is below 1.5 kg/dm3, so that the claric E has no stagnic properties (WRB 2022 3.2.14 criterion 4) and the profile does not key as a Stagnosol.
