“We appreciate the goal of reducing the paperwork generated by our legal system, and we will do our part here by dispatching this argument quickly — and just once. Because [the petitioner] raises this [PRA] argument in a perfunctory manner and makes no effort at developed argumentation — she does not identify which provision of the Act the B[IA] supposedly violated, nor does she explain why a paper-generating remand is a useful remedy — we deem the argument forfeited.”
