re: break the EXTRAS n=1 cap -- which I had wrongly called structural
I recorded EXTRAS as able to supply only one gap measurement because "its sole
exit is (B) to the menu", and called that n=1 STRUCTURAL -- a word that retires a
question. The disc refutes it in one command: build 6 declares three buttons,
ptbtn11/ptbtn12/ptbtn13, all kind 0x3002. The cap was an unverified assertion I
had already written into HANDOFF twice.
Measured EXTRAS -> a screen outside GP_TITLE via (A): outgoing quad rises across
frames 36-40 (4-5 frames, matching build 6's declared 10-unit close), then THREE
empty frames at 42, 43, 44, then a different archive builds (23-28 draws/frame
against GP_TITLE's 11-14). Gap = 3.
So EXTRAS as outgoing gives {2, 3}, and seven transitions now group as:
menu {0,1,1} n=3, EXTRAS {2,3} n=2, title {3,3,3} n=3.
A pairwise control that holds the destination class constant: menu -> another
archive gives 1, EXTRAS -> another archive gives 3. Same kind of destination, gap
differs by outgoing screen. That is the strongest support yet for the
outgoing-screen dependence because it removes the destination as the variable.
But the clean ordering is GONE: EXTRAS {2,3} and title {3,3,3} overlap at 3, so
"menu < EXTRAS < title" no longer separates them. What survives is weaker -- the
outgoing screen constrains the gap to a ~2-wide band and the bands are not
disjoint.
METHOD: a structural limit is a claim and needs checking like any other.
"Structural" and "impossible" are the two words most worth distrusting in your own
notes, because they retire a question rather than answering it and nothing later
re-opens them.
