sylph-decoder bc241f5d06 re: F6 unit 2 -- the parent's alpha IS multiplied into the sweep leaf
Question, look-at and not-covered written before the work, per PROTOCOL's
units section.

One boot, one A to skip the attract video, then no input so the title
builds in undisturbed. The sweeps are the two rotated 600%-scaled strips,
identified by size: NDC 1.38x3.15 and 1.39x3.15, matching the corpus's own
independently measured AABB height of 1134 px (2*1134/720 = 3.15).

Drawn alphas run 8, 24, 33, 50, 58, 74, 83, 100, 107 and 16, 41, 67, 91,
116, 128... pteff03's LEAF alpha is bounded below by 128 (keys 0:255
150:128 540:255 600:255). 8 < 128, so the leaf cannot produce it alone.
The parent's alpha is multiplied in.

That refutes the port's screen_view.gd decode that "the leaf runs on its
OWN timeline and the parent's alpha is NOT multiplied in" -- which is
exactly what that file asked for. It flagged honestly that every
observation behind it had parent alpha 0, so "the leaf wins" and "the
parent is ignored because it draws nothing" were never separated, and named
t=100..238 as the separating interval. This capture is in that interval.

Bears on F6's original report: the parent ramps 0->255 across t=70..100, so
if it multiplies in the sweep is invisible before ~70 and dim until 100. A
human reporting it starts late is seeing a real gate -- the parent's ENTRY
ramp, not the 238 cluster, which unit 1 showed is an exit.

Reach: one boot; quads identified by size against a previously measured
AABB, not by name, since the draw stream carries no names. The bound
argument needs only that the leaf minimum is 128, which is from the disc.
It does NOT establish the combination is plain leaf x parent rather than
some other one that also dips below 128 -- only that the parent
participates.
