The port reproduced the floor exactly (159) once the predicate was named, and
counted an independent capture from a different session: 753 against this run's
714, a ratio of 4.7x against 4.6x. 'Never goes off' is no longer single-run.
Two METHOD entries.
A detector that can fire on a single frame will fire on the wrong one. The A/B's
first pair was void because the title detector tested one frame against a glyph
threshold and the intro movie throws sub-second green flashes of 1298..5433. The
presses were real and skipped the movie, so both legs returned a clean,
symmetric, meaningless result -- a void test that looks like it ran is worse than
one that errors. Same shape the corpus already recorded for screen_id.py calling
the SQUARE ENIX logo 'title'. Twice paid for. The rule is that a screen detector
matches a signature over time, and a broken run's own series is the cheapest
control for its replacement.
A demand for reproducibility can surface a defect that is not the one demanded.
The literal answer to 'your figures are unverifiable' was 'here is the
predicate', after which they verified exactly -- but writing the method down is
what exposed the cross-geometry floor comparison, which nobody was looking for.
And both sides were wrong at once: the challenger's counts were the wrong
measurement AND the published figure had a real flaw.
