re: the title menu wraps -- Q5 measured, Q4 driven, and one of my own

method lines withdrawn

Q5, measured off two boots: up/down move one item and WRAP at both ends
on the 5-item main menu and the 3-item EXTRAS alike; left/right do
nothing; B goes up one level and restores focus to the item you came
from (4/4); B on the main menu returns to the title; B on the title does
nothing. The menu opens on TUTORIAL -- the middle item -- 2/2, though a
third recorded run implies NEW GAME, so that one is reproducible rather
than invariant and says so.

Q4 by driving: LOAD GAME opens the save-slot list, TUTORIAL the lesson
list, OPTIONS the settings menu, EXTRAS build 6, MISSION SELECT the stage
list. NEW GAME is not tested -- A on it hangs the emulator and this
iteration needed the session. The GamePart ID behind each is NOT
measured: it is the entry of the decoded id table whose name matches the
screen I saw, and the page says so rather than wearing the badge.

And the withdrawal. Last iteration I wrote that these menus drop d-pad
presses shorter than ~0.3s. They do not. Once wrap is measured, every
press count I had is exactly right -- four presses moved four steps
THROUGH the bottom, which lands one above where a non-wrapping menu
would. I invented hardware flakiness instead of testing the ends of the
list. METHOD keeps the withdrawal rather than deleting the line.

Also: label brightness is not a cursor oracle here -- the background art
outshines the highlight on some rows. menu_focus.py reads the focus ring
instead, 254 vs <82, no tuning.

+* "the title menus drop d-pad presses shorter than ~0.3 s" → **refuted by my
+  own data.** The menu **wraps at both ends**; every press registered, and the
+  "missing" step was the wrap. See [`menu-navigation-semantics.md`](menu-navigation-semantics.md).
+* "the main menu opens with `NEW GAME` focused" → it opens on **`TUTORIAL`**,
+  2/2 boots (🟡 a third recorded run implies `NEW GAME`, so this is reproducible,
+  not invariant).
 * "`GP_TITLE` builds 6/8/9 are three submenus" → **8 is the JAPANESE main
   menu**, and 6/9 are the English and Japanese `EXTRAS` submenu. `GP_TITLE`
   holds eight screens shipped twice (EN/JP), and exactly one submenu. See
