Claude (auto-RE) f4d59c5783 re: Stage 02 is lost at ~11 minutes, and the pilot's survival rule is what guarantees it
First session whose deliverable was the mission's ENDING rather than a
measurement (mission_run.sh, 500 s, hull of every entity at 2 Hz). The ACROPOLIS
is untouched to t=170 s then falls at ~53 HP/s with no let-up, reaching zero at
t=640-720 s — so "no mission completed" is not an artifact of the 240 s
time-boxes, and not of the 600 s cap on a blocking tool call. A longer session
would only watch the loss arrive.

Attributing the damage by co-presence, exactly two classes are ever near the
asset: e007 turrets (8483) and e010 bombers (8334). pilot.py treats turrets as
keep-out zones at 2500 units and never as targets — the rule that made it
survive — so roughly half the escort damage comes from the one class it is
designed to avoid. Survival and the objective are in direct conflict and the
pilot resolves it entirely for survival: WARSHIPS 0000, WARPLANES 0009,
REMAINING OB rising 004 -> 008, our hull untouched at 1500/1500 with 120
missiles spent. That is unspent risk budget, not a good run.

Also corrects launch_mission.sh: a harness-tracked BACKGROUND task does not keep
the display alive (lost 11 s in, at the turn boundary) — the
one-blocking-foreground-call rule stands.
