rest_plateau() selects the LONGEST run of identical adjacent poses, which need
not be the run covering the screen's settle instant. rest_vs_settle left a 21.9 %
disagreement that I recorded as ambiguous by construction. It is not.
CONTROL exactly one plateau, covering the settle instant:
3 072 / 3 072 agree (100.0 %)
TEST more than one plateau, at least one covering:
1 622 elements, agree on 586 (36.1 %)
of the 1 036 disagreements, rest() landed on a run NOT covering the
settle instant: 1 036 -- all of them, no exceptions
Both poses are genuinely held in these cases -- they are plateau cases, not
transients -- so this is rest() returning a pose the screen has ALREADY LEFT by
the time it settles.
This corrects my own METHOD entry of two iterations ago, which said a candidate
cannot be adjudicated against the incumbent it replaces. Too strong. The bare
comparison cannot; the comparison plus a structural property that independently
says which side is wrong in each disagreement can. What I lacked was not an
oracle but a discriminator.

CONTROL — exactly ONE plateau, and it covers the settle instant:
|
|
3072 elements, rest() and pose_at(settle) agree on 3072 (100.0 %)
|
|
|
|
TEST — MORE THAN ONE plateau, at least one covering the settle instant:
|
|
1622 elements, agree on 586 (36.1 %)
|
|
of the 1036 disagreements, rest() landed on a run that does NOT cover
|
|
the settle instant: 1036

# ✅ THE CONTROL IS EXACT. Where an element has exactly ONE plateau and it
|
|
# covers the settle instant, rest() and pose_at(settle) agree 3 072 / 3 072.
|
|
# The comparison is sound; the disagreements are not noise.
|
|
#
|
|
# ✅ AND EVERY DISAGREEMENT IS ATTRIBUTABLE. In all 1 036 of them rest()
|
|
# returned a pose from a run that does NOT contain the settle instant, while
|
|
# pose_at(settle) sat on one that does. Both poses are genuinely HELD -- these
|
|
# are plateau cases -- so this is not 'a held pose versus a transient'. It is
|
|
# rest() returning a pose the screen has ALREADY LEFT by the time it settles.
|
|
#
|
|
# 1036 of 1036, no exceptions. The 21.9 % residual is the incumbent's.
