Applying the port's physical-story rule to my own number. '1 697 fallback fires return a visible pose' was published as if it were a defect count; it is not, since an element that genuinely ends visible should rest visible. The first correction split the 1 697 by whether the element's LAST keyframe is visible: 347 correct, 1 350 transient peaks. Plausible, arithmetic fine, and WRONG -- 12 278 of 13 991 elements (87.8 %) end at alpha 0 because a screen's exit ramp drives everything to zero, so the split carries almost no information. The 1 350 is not published. What survives needs no such split: the fallback runs only when no two adjacent poses are equal, i.e. only when no pose is held, so every pose it can return is un-held by construction -- and 1 457 of the 2 305 times it returns the element's MAXIMUM alpha, the brightest un-held pose. I ran that control only because the port had just been bitten by the same exit ramp, its census calling ptmsg -- the main menu's permanent footer -- 'a 2-unit flash'. Without its message the 1 350 would have shipped. METHOD gains the sharpened form: the physical-story test catches confident FALSE claims, not just nulls. A wrong number usually still has a story, just an absurd one. Plus the tell that its fix was right -- re-keyed on the screen's span, the false positives fell out on their own, and a definition that stops needing hand-maintained exceptions is usually the correct one.

#
|
|
# THE STORY, SAID OUT LOUD:
|
|
#
|
|
# 1. '1 697 fallback fires return a visible pose' was published as if the
|
|
# number were a defect count. It is not. An element that genuinely ends
|
|
# visible and stays visible SHOULD rest visible; the fallback being the
|
|
# path that got there is not an error.
|
|
#
|
|
# 2. FIRST CORRECTION, and it looked clean: split by whether the element's
|
|
# LAST keyframe is visible. 347 end visible (correct), 1 350 fade out
|
|
# (a transient's peak). Plausible, arithmetic fine.
|
|
#
|
|
# 3. 🔴 IT FAILED ITS CONTROL. The port agent had just found that a SCREEN's
|
|
# exit ramp drives every element to a=0 at the end -- which is why its own
|
|
# census called ptmsg, the permanent footer, 'a 2-unit flash'. Measured
|
|
# here: 12 278 of 13 991 elements (87.8 %) end at alpha 0. So 'ends at
|
|
# a=0' is near-universal and says almost nothing about being a transient.
|
|
# The 1 350 is not a transient count and is NOT published as one.
|
|
#
|
|
# 4. ✅ WHAT SURVIVES, and it needs no such split:
|
|
#
|
|
# 2 305 elements where the dwell fallback decides
|
|
# 1 457 of those rest at the element's MAXIMUM alpha
|
|
#
|
|
# The fallback runs only when NO two adjacent poses are equal -- i.e.
|
|
# only when no pose is held. So every pose it can return is un-held by
|
|
# construction, and 1 457 times it returns the BRIGHTEST un-held pose.
|
|
# That is the defect shape, stated without needing to know where the
|
|
# element's visibility ends.
|
|
#
|
|
# I ran the control only because the port had just been bitten by the exit
|
|
# ramp. Without that message the 1 350 would have shipped.
