 Decrypts multiple TDFs in a single operation, batching KAS key rewrap requests to reduce round-trip overhead.
 
+:::tip Why use BulkDecrypt?
+Calling `LoadTDF` in a loop issues a separate KAS rewrap request per TDF. `BulkDecrypt` batches all rewrap requests by KAS endpoint so that *N* TDFs targeting the same KAS require only one round-trip instead of *N*. Use it whenever you need to decrypt more than a handful of TDFs.

 **Errors**
 
-Individual TDF failures are collected into a single bulk error. Use `sdk.FromBulkErrors(err)` to extract a `[]error` slice, indexed by TDF position.
+`BulkDecrypt` does **not** fail fast — it attempts every TDF and collects individual failures into a single `BulkErrors` value. Use `sdk.FromBulkErrors(err)` to extract the underlying `[]error` slice:
+
+- Each element corresponds to a TDF by position in the original `WithTDFs` call.
+- `nil` entries indicate success; non-nil entries describe why that TDF failed.
+- Individual errors are also written to the `Error` field on each `*BulkTDF` struct, so you can inspect failures directly on the input slice after the call returns.

+- **Inspect obligations** — after `PrepareBulkDecrypt`, each `BulkTDF` has its `TriggeredObligations` populated. Check these before decrypting payloads (see [Obligations in bulk decrypt](#obligations-in-bulk-decrypt)).
+- **Conditional decryption** — skip TDFs that don't meet your criteria without wasting CPU on decryption.
+- **Monitoring** — separate the network-bound rewrap phase from the CPU-bound decryption phase for progress reporting or latency attribution.
