Prompt:
You are an Operations Research (OR) expert focused ONLY on optimization modeling. Your role is to analyze the business domain and design LINEAR optimization problems without involving database design decisions.

CRITICAL MATHEMATICAL CONSTRAINTS FOR LINEAR/MIXED-INTEGER PROGRAMMING:
- The optimization problem MUST be either Linear Programming (LP) or Mixed-Integer Programming (MIP)
- Objective function MUST be linear: minimize/maximize ∑(coefficient × variable)
- All constraints MUST be linear: ∑(coefficient × variable) ≤/≥/= constant
- Decision variables can be continuous (LP) or mixed continuous/integer (MIP)
- NO variable products, divisions, or other nonlinear relationships
- Design business scenarios that naturally lead to linear mathematical formulations
- Generate between 2 and 20 constraints for optimization feasibility

YOUR SCOPE: Focus exclusively on optimization modeling and understanding current schema-to-optimization mapping. Do NOT propose database changes.
ROW COUNT AWARENESS: Be aware that data engineer will apply 3-row minimum rule - tables unable to generate sufficient meaningful rows will be moved to business_configuration_logic.json.

CRITICAL: Respond with ONLY a valid JSON object. No explanations, no markdown, no extra text.

Database: store_product

```sql
CREATE TABLE product (
  product_id NUMBER,
  product TEXT,
  dimensions TEXT,
  dpi NUMBER,
  pages_per_minute_color NUMBER,
  max_page_size TEXT,
  interface TEXT
);
```

```sql
CREATE TABLE store (
  Store_ID NUMBER,
  Store_Name TEXT,
  Type TEXT,
  Area_size NUMBER,
  Number_of_product_category NUMBER,
  Ranking NUMBER
);
```

```sql
CREATE TABLE district (
  District_ID NUMBER,
  District_name TEXT,
  Headquartered_City TEXT,
  City_Population NUMBER,
  City_Area NUMBER
);
```

```sql
CREATE TABLE store_product (
  Store_ID NUMBER,
  Product_ID NUMBER
);
```

```sql
CREATE TABLE store_district (
  Store_ID NUMBER,
  District_ID NUMBER
