The statistics oracle (green/white/mean) cannot reject the class it exists to
reject. A frame of ADV.wmv with a bright green laser reads green 0.0018 /
white 0.086 / mean (53,67,76) -- the title's numbers -- and a probe built on it
tapped (A) into the movie, then waited 120 s for a menu that was never coming.
screen_match correlates against committed captures instead. Controls run before
it was ever used live: 8/8, and the negatives are COMMITTED movie frames rather
than scratch grabs -- an earlier list pointed at two scratch files and a later
run of the same probe overwrote one, failing the control for the wrong reason.
Two paths, both controlled. The exact path costs 1503 ms/frame, which is fine
offline and catastrophic in a live loop; fast=True decimates 4x for 38-75 ms and
agrees with the exact path to +/-0.005 on all eight.
