Two things in one run, on the screen that motivated both.
First, the effective-config guard I had flagged as "not yet verified" -- leaving a
doubt in my own file, which is the shape sylpheed-port had just caught themselves
in. Verified now:
arming on = menu [screen_id: cannot separate menu/EXTRAS]
discriminator = extras rmse=18.94 (other main_menu 30.09, margin 11.15)
Before the fix this run would have announced "arming on = menu" while armed on
EXTRAS. The ambiguity is visible instead of hidden.
Second, a replicate of the table's weakest cell. Second EXTRAS -> menu: outgoing
quad 229, 255, 255 across frames 29-31, then TWO empty frames at 32 and 33. Gap =
2, identical to the first.
Eight transitions now say something sharper than the outgoing-screen story, which
is superseded a second time:
title -> menu 3, 3, 3 n=3 repeats agree
EXTRAS -> menu 2, 2 n=2 repeats agree
menu -> title 0 n=1
menu -> EXTRAS 1 n=1
menu -> other 1 n=1
EXTRAS -> other 3 n=1
Every repeated pair is identical -- five replicates, no variation -- and every
differing value comes from a different pair. The same origin gives different
values to different destinations (menu 0 vs 1, EXTRAS 2 vs 3). So the origin
CONSTRAINS the gap and the ORDERED PAIR determines it, reproducibly.
For the port: a constant black_hold_units is excluded and keying on the outgoing
screen is excluded too. Any keyed version must be keyed on the ordered pair, with
a measured value per pair -- six known, two replicated, none predicted by anything
declared.
