The second owner of one blocked level goes. Its capability is the
zero-refinement FixedPatchStepper added in f764d68/985db14 (periodic SRT
level, stationary passive circles, shifted storage, NaN spare, single wait),
which matched it array for array on GPU at 1318fc2 (3 splits x +-circle x
shifted/unshifted) and passes the host lifecycle and fault contracts.
API change for callers:
PeriodicBlockStepper(cfg, BlockLayout2D.build(ny, nx, by, bx), context=c, objects=o)
-> FixedPatchStepper(cfg, context=c, refinements=[], level_blocks=[(by, bx)],
level_objects=[tuple(o)])
download() returns a 1-tuple; static-circle tables are
_level_boundaries[0].tables (was .boundary); no free-memory preflight.
- lbm/block_stepper.py deleted; MAX_GRID_DIM lives in refinement_stepper.
- tests/validation/multigrid/test_block_stepper.py: same frozen GPU gates
(split identity, FP64 oracle, circle across seams) and pre-CUDA rejection
cases on the single level; the old-vs-new bitwise test is retired with the
old class (its result is the 1318fc2 record).
- tests/unit/test_block_step_sync.py folded into test_single_level.py
(step(n) vs n x step(1) roles and one wait, step(0), mid-batch launch
failure), which also gains bad-state rejection before upload, download
failure and activation-failure retry on close.
- test_shifted_storage and test_raw_exchange_gpu use the single level; the
raw-exchange reference feeds the AMR Jet column and raw ledger through the
root level boundary instead of patching a private kernel field.
- Pinned historical runners (taylor_green/run_case.py, run_jet_circle_cv.py)
are unchanged: they only run on trees that still ship PeriodicBlockStepper.

The file:line citations pointed at c95a7ba and went stale after P1, the
compile-time root modes and the kernel entry/step split. Each guard is now
named by file plus function (or the kernel #error guard) at source
revision 888c8038. No claim, scope, observation or evidence revision
changed.

Names the exact SRT/MRT parity tests and their sub-case scope (SRT: one
of 18 sub-cases, unidentified; MRT: 12 sub-cases, default outlet settings,
with the runs that recorded the pass), cites blocks.py:134 for tile
divisibility, labels refinement.py:457 as the fine-boundary re-check, and
says 'measured at 36ffc8b1' for the Taylor-Green observation.

One page listing supported settings, each with the guard enforcing it
(file:line at c95a7ba) and the existing tests exercising it. Measured
observations are labelled by their exact tested case (SRT strict-parity
1/4320 values ~2 ULP with unresolved cause; V3 TG constant explosion
aggregate; curved-wall r1 pilot; V4 NOT_STEADY), not stated as general
bounds. Documentation only.
