+Nested shear validation: exact 335624c27b8fc9925e708fb61bde5eea5c04d2a4; production a135252ae78b47b57d7e77d19001700b3bedac8b unchanged.
+57 host tests and four source-only dry runs passed. Four fresh GPU cases completed
+sequentially; valid frozen scientific outcome: FAIL.
+Both uniform controls pass; constant and projected depth-3 runs fail own pressure
+and comparative rate/residual/pressure budgets. No rerun or tuning.
+Eight actual build sidecars audited; one projected final macro snapshot, no
+population dump or time series. Complete original archive with 66 intended members.
