+* 🔴 **What makes a bundle a screen rather than a fragment — not the header**
+  (2026-08-24). Swept over all **2 859** composable bundles: **no bit** of the
+  flags word at `+0x10` labels a screen (best is bit 13 at **44 %** full-screen
+  against a **12.8 %** base; the commonest bit is set on **91 %** of everything).
+  The population really is mostly fragments — element counts min 1, **median 2**,
+  p95 23, max 56, and only **365** carry a full-screen element — so the
+  separation is *shape*, or which bundle references which, and the PAK cannot
+  answer the latter directly because its entries are name-hashed.
+  ✅ **By-product:** the header is not dead space. `+0x18`/`+0x1c` are the
+  **design resolution** (1280/720 on 98.7 %, asserted), and 🟡 `+0x04` takes only
+  `0x3C0000`/`0x1E0000` — exactly **60.0/30.0 in 16.16** — with `+0x08` at
+  30/1200/120/60, i.e. a frame rate and a duration in frames. That last reading
+  is from the values alone and is unverified against an animation.

 * 🟡 **What `opt ` links — a record→record reference** (2026-08-24, measured
