Remarks

It carried Stable, "tonic, at rest", the highest stability there is, beside the mood "Unknown": one answer saying the chord is unknown and the other that it is home. A 7sus4, which no template names, was a resting chord here and a non-functional one in the advisor's report of the same progression.
