Region [9.44, 71.31] of an 87.744 s wave: first 9.44 s an intro played once, last 16.4 s a fade never played. 61.87 replaces 61.93, 0.1 percent apart; the measured value has the loop's own endpoints under it. The port's near-silence count tracked the window's correctness without being designed to: 36 frames spanning 3.4 s untrimmed, 5 with the right length over the wrong window, 0 with the measured window. The old window kept part of the quiet intro; the measured one excludes intro and fade both. Wrap continuity is unchanged and still not evidence -- the silence count discriminated where the step count could not. Also fixes a stale why that reached the manifest for two days: corrections went into loop_end_why and loop_start_why while loop_why, the field the exporter concatenates, still said the loop would be audibly wrong at the seam and that no loop-point field existed. A correction that does not reach the artifact a consumer reads has not been made. My first check of that fix reported the stale text still present, because the replacement quotes the refuted sentences in order to name them.

Authored decisions
Everything here is a decision we made, not something the disc said. It is
hand-written, committed, and survives a re-export — unlike export/, which is
regenerated wholesale and must never be hand-edited.
Every entry carries a why. When the RE agent decodes the real answer, delete
the entry and let the exporter emit it; that deletion is the measure of
progress.
See docs/FORMAT.md for the schemas and docs/BLOCKED.md for which HANDOFF
question each placeholder is standing in for.
