re: mining the base-solver index -- a false-positive mode named, and the AI-table reader found

277 rows over 190 distinct functions (a function can read several blocks).
name_block_bases.py extended with a confidence split.

The tool's false-positive mode, measured and named: 107 of 277 rows solve to a
base on a 64K boundary -- a bare "addis rX, r0, 0xHHHH" with no addi, so any
scatter of displacements votes for it.  82 are 0x820B0000: about 60
near-identical functions in 0x8281xxxx-0x8284xxxx all "naming" the same rou_e0NN
list.  The 170 rows with a non-zero low half are the trustworthy set.  A round
base is not automatically wrong -- sub_822215D0 sits on 0x820A0000 and resolves
205/206 -- so read the ratio, not the base.

The index re-derives every loader we already knew (unit 217, stage settings 129,
PlayerParams 90, hangar 81, squadron orders, missile guidance, shell movement,
substructures, six camera/fog readers) -- that is the control.

The find: sub_8233C368 reads the AI behaviour table.  r28, base 0x8208583C, 20
names -- Enumerate_AIs, FiringLength, GuardLength, AutoGuardLength, CounterLength,
MusterLength.  stage-mission-tables.md owns those field names on the data side,
but Enumerate_AIs appears in no document and no reader was known; the corpus
carries the AI tail of Maneuver as NEEDS-HUMAN/runtime.  It is statically
reachable after all.  The same base also serves sub_82338EE0 (97 names, Weapon
TargetType SpecialWeaponType ReticleType IsCharging ...) -- the weapon datasheet
loader, also not previously named.

Five unowned blocks surfaced and NOT opened: PGHUD_*/PGREMAIN_NUM HUD part names
(205/206), STAGE_RESULT/stage_num_shoot_down_aircrafts/EX_OVERVIEW,
g_mWorldViewProjection/NormalMap/GlossinessMap engine material slots,
Boss16Collision* (cross-links the S16 Guardian object), and roh_n001_menu1_cam_pos
menu camera tags.

## ✅ 2026-08-27 — mining the base-solver index: a false-positive mode named, and the AI-table reader found
Item (a). 277 rows over **190 distinct functions** (a function can read several
blocks). `name_block_bases.py` extended with a confidence split; artefact
**+11/0**, byte-identical across two runs.
🔴 **The tool's false-positive mode, now measured and named.** **107 of 277** rows
solve to a base on a **64K boundary** — a bare `addis rX, r0, 0xHHHH` with no
`addi`, so any scatter of displacements votes for it. **82 are `0x820B0000`**:
~60 near-identical functions in `0x8281xxxx0x8284xxxx` all "naming" the same
`rou_e007 rou_e010 …` list. **The 170 rows with a non-zero low half are the
trustworthy set.** ⚠️ A round base is not automatically wrong — `sub_822215D0`
sits on `0x820A0000` and resolves 205/206 — so read the ratio, not the base.
**Already owned, and the index re-derives them** (that is the control): the
unit loader (217), stage settings (129), `PlayerParams` (90), hangar (81),
squadron orders, missile guidance, shell movement, substructures, six camera/fog
readers.
🔑 **The find: `sub_8233C368` reads the AI behaviour table**`r28`, base
`0x8208583C`, 20 names: **`Enumerate_AIs`**, `FiringLength`, `GuardLength`,
`AutoGuardLength`, `CounterLength`, `MusterLength`, … `stage-mission-tables.md`
owns those *field* names on the data side; **`Enumerate_AIs` appears in no
document and no reader was known** — the corpus carries the AI tail of `Maneuver`
as 🟡 NEEDS-HUMAN/runtime. **It is statically reachable after all.** The same base
also serves `sub_82338EE0` (97 names, `Weapon TargetType SpecialWeaponType
ReticleType IsCharging …`) — the weapon datasheet loader, also not previously
named.
**Five unowned blocks surfaced, none opened:** `sub_822215D0` (205/206,
`PGHUD_*`/`PGREMAIN_NUM%d` HUD part names), `sub_822814D8` + `sub_8227A3A0`
(`STAGE_RESULT`, `stage_num_shoot_down_aircrafts`, `EX_OVERVIEW`),
`sub_822E3EC8` (`g_mWorldViewProjection`, `NormalMap`, `GlossinessMap` — engine
material slots), `sub_823C0260` + `sub_823AE908` (`Boss16Collision*`,
cross-linking the S16 `Guardian` object), `sub_822AFA50`
(`roh_n001_menu1_cam_pos` — menu camera tags).
🟡 Not settled: the index says what each function *names*, not what each *means*
— nothing above was opened. And the 107 low-confidence rows were flagged, not
re-solved with a stricter method.
