-Source: [DUPLICATION_AUDIT_2026_08_07.md](DUPLICATION_AUDIT_2026_08_07.md); per-domain evidence in

-**117 items selected for remediation.**
-
-Each item gets, before any code changes:
-1. **Adversarial review** — is the finding actually valid? (re-read the source; findings were
-   reliable about *what* but unreliable about *where* — see audit §7.)
-2. **Complexity question** — does the fix make the code significantly more complex?
-3. **Performance question** — does the fix make the relevant part of the engine significantly slower?
-
-An item may be closed as **REJECTED** (finding invalid) or **DECLINED** (valid but the fix costs more
-than the duplication) — both are legitimate outcomes and are recorded with the reason.

-
-| | ID | Sev | Finding | Valid? | More complex? | Slower? |
-|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
-| [x] | **A2** | HIGH | Boolean and distance-returning AABB-vs-ray-segment slab tests, whose docs declare they MUST agree, are two independent copies of the same numerical… | Yes — identical through t_box_max; only the return differs | No, −45 lines | No — 1 static call, monomorphic, V8 inlines |
-| [x] | **A3** | HIGH | Point-in-closed-triangle-surface classifier (BVH build + 3-ray parity majority vote) copy-pasted whole between the tetrahedral carver and the inter… | Yes — RAY_DIRECTIONS digit-identical, build_surface_bvh token-identical | No — extracted to bt_mesh_surface_ray_parity | No — tetrahedralisation is build-time |
-| [x] | **A4** | HIGH | Radial-cycle splice (the core half-edge invariant "link a loop into an edge's face ring") implemented three times, with two of them behaviourally d… | Yes — 3 impls, 2 divergences (prev-vs-next splice, missing self-link) | No — 2 private copies deleted | No — mesh construction, build-time. Ring order differs only for 3+ loops on one edge; 2-manifold rings identical either way |
-| [x] | **A5** | HIGH | Static implicit-binary-tree spatial index (morton quicksort + bottom-up bounds assembly) forked 3D→2D; the fork carries a scratch-stack indexing bu… | Yes — CONFIRMED re-entrancy bug: seeds stack[0]/[1] absolutely but reads from stack_top | No — 2-line fix | No. Full sort_morton/build hoist DECLINED: would need combine_fn/morton_fn indirect calls per node in a build inner loop |
-| [x] | **A7** | MEDIUM | ConvexHullShape3D and MeshShape3D share five copy-pasted query methods. | Yes — sample_random_point_in_volume token-identical; needs only 2 abstract methods | No — 2 copies removed, 1 base default added | No — 256 contains_point probes dominate the bbox copy |
-| [x] | **A8** | MEDIUM | Bounding box of a flat (x,y,z) buffer re-inlined instead of calling aabb3_from_v3_array. | Yes — same reduction the primitive performs | No, −11 lines x2 | No — same loop, inside recompute |
-| [x] | **A11** | MEDIUM | MeshShape3D re-implements the shared finite-difference SDF-gradient sampler with a different step size and no normalisation, while every other shap… | Yes — 6 siblings delegate, this one didn't; also unnormalised | No, 18 lines to 1 | No — 4 SDF calls dominate; adds one sqrt |
-| [x] | **A13** | MEDIUM | curl_noise_3d is curl_noise_3dt with w = 0, including the six duplicated decorrelation offsets. | Yes — curl_noise_3dt(w=0) is exactly it | No, 12 lines to 1 | No — 3x sdnoise3 dominates |
-| [x] | **A14** | MEDIUM | m4_compose (object args) and m4_from_rotation_translation_scale (array args) contain the same 45-line quaternion→matrix expansion. | Yes — identical expansion, only operand reads differ | No — one scalar core, both public names kept | No — one static call; V8 inlines |
-| [x] | **A15** | MEDIUM | The boolean segment-segment intersection test is an exact prefix of the point-returning one. | Yes — exact prefix, 13 identical lines | No — shared core, both faces thin | No — one call; boolean discards via module scratch |
-| [x] | **A16** | MEDIUM | Reading a triangular face's three vertex ids / coordinates out of a BinaryTopology is hand-written at ~8 non-spec sites, with inconsistent "is it a… | Yes — 2 copies with INCONSISTENT safety: one checked NULL_POINTER, neither verified triangularity | No — new primitive checks both; call sites shorter | No — same reads plus one loop_read_next triangularity check |
-| [x] | **A17** | MEDIUM | Straight-line vertex-to-vertex distance re-implemented inside both pathfinders while the primitive sits in the same directory — and the two copies … | Yes — 3 spellings incl. hypot vs sqrt (not bit-identical) | No — deletes 2 local fns | No — FASTER; hypot is slower than sqrt |
-| [x] | **A18** | MEDIUM | order_cycle_from and the fan-fill of a boundary loop are copy-pasted between the two hole-closing modules. | Yes — order_cycle_from byte-identical modulo brace formatting | No — extracted to bt_boundary_loop | No — hole-filling is a build-time mesh repair pass |
-| [x] | **A19** | MEDIUM | project_triangle (isometric triangle flattening) duplicated between the two chart parameterisers. | Yes — same algorithm; BFF comment said 'Same as LSCM' | No — promoted to tri3_flatten_isometric | No — build-time atlas path |
-| [x] | **A20** | MEDIUM | qt_collect_by_circle and qt_match_data_by_circle are the same traversal, differing by one predicate conjunct; and the circle queries lost the child… | Yes — same traversal, one predicate conjunct; circle queries lacked push-time pruning | No — one impl + accept_all fn (not a null sentinel) | No — adds 1 indirect call/datum but ALSO adds child pruning box had and circle lacked; net favourable |
-| [x] | **A21** | MEDIUM | Winding-agnostic point-in-tetrahedron and coordinate-form orient3d are file-private in MeshShape3D while the shared versions sit in core/geom/3d. | Yes — determinant expansion character-identical | No — orient3d_fast becomes a 3-line reader | No — contains_point timing unchanged (2260ms vs 2104-2234 baseline) |
-| [~] | **A22** | LOW-MEDIUM | m4_decompose re-derives the whole of m4_extract_scale. | Partly — only the 3 v3_length calls coincide | Would ADD complexity: scratch array + call to share 3 lines | n/a — declined; documented instead (reflection handling makes the two return different scale) |
-| [x] | **A23** | LOW-MEDIUM | Barycentric-weights → 3D point reconstruction re-expanded at five sites instead of a tri3_closest_point primitive. | Yes — 6 sites reconstructed from barycentrics, 3 different namings | No — 6 sites collapse to 1 line each | No — surface-scan helpers, not collision hot path |
-| [x] | **A24** | LOW-MEDIUM | The two atlas_segment_charts variants re-declare the same tuning constants and the same roundness term, with a comment claiming they must stay local. | Yes — and the 'kept local for monomorphism' comment is wrong for constants | No | No — tiny monomorphic fn, V8 inlines |
-| [~] | **A25** | LOW-MEDIUM | The spatial-hash-grid cell walk (read element AABB out of the pool) is duplicated between the circle and line queries, including the same no-dedupl… | Partly — layout constants are ALREADY shared imports; only 4 array reads coincide | Would ADD complexity | YES — forces a scratch round-trip in a broadphase inner loop; documented instead |
-| [x] | **A26** | LOW | Shape hash() methods disagree on the integer mixing function even though combine_hash exists. | Yes — 3 sibling vector types used 3 different mixers; Vector2 omitted |0 entirely | No — hash_mix2/hash_mix3, call sites shorter | No — non-allocating, unlike varargs combine_hash |
-| [~] | **A27** | LOW | BFF's interior_angle re-implements v3_angle from an indexed buffer, using the acos form rather than the atan2-stable form that also exists. | NO — recommendation was WRONG: v3_angle returns acos(0)=PI/2 for degenerate, BFF returns 0 | n/a | n/a — swap would corrupt BFF curvature (Omega = 2PI - sum theta); documented as deliberate |
-| [x] | **A28** | LOW | Two different exported functions named compute_edge_collapse_cost in the same package. | Yes — 2 different exported fns, same name, sibling files | No — rename + deprecated alias | No |
-| [x] | **A29** | LOW | Per-vertex quadric accumulation implemented twice, once per mesh representation, with divergent feature sets. | Partly — normals legitimately differ; only d=-n.v0 + setFromVector4 is shared | No — narrower primitive than proposed | No — per-face, build-time |
-| [x] | **A30** | LOW | read_frustum_corner is v3_copy_array with an index instead of an offset. | Yes — same 3 reads, v3_copy_array already overlap-safe | No | No — per-frame, not per-pixel |

-|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
-| [x] | **B3** | HIGH | Traversal-order invariant duplicated 14× and drifted. Every hand-written BVH2 traversal repeats the same stack skeleton *and* the comment "write to… | Yes — I verified: 8 sites, byte-identical comment (typo included), 2 matched it, 6 contradicted | No — swapped 2 lines per file, fixed the typo | No — identical work, only push order |
-| [~] | **B9** | MEDIUM | Intrusive MRU doubly-linked-list splice duplicated between the two cache implementations. | Yes — token-identical MRU splice | Extraction would re-home 44 private-field accesses across 2 cache classes | n/a — declined as too risky for a bulk sweep; documented, recommended standalone |
-| [x] | **B10** | MEDIUM | BVH8 geometry validator duplicated for the direct vs pool-indirect triangle addressing conventions. | Yes — 92% shared, one differing line | No for the helper; walk merge DECLINED (needs identity array sized to triangle count, or per-triangle indirect call) | No — cold debug validator |
-| [x] | **B12** | MEDIUM | Graph-layout helpers duplicated between the box and circle layouters, including a verbatim topological-layer peel. | Yes — buildLayer token-identical, pure topology | No — extracted to graph_peel_topological_layer | No — layout runs per graph edit |
-| [x] | **B14** | MEDIUM | Four colour-adjustment operators are the same 20-line body (assert pair → early-return on amount === 0 → new Color() → linear_srgb_to_okhsv → scale… | Yes — same 20-line body x4; the 'drifted clamp' is behaviourally equivalent though | No — 4 typed wrappers, numeric channel index (not a string key) | No — theme/UI time |
-| [x] | **B19** | LOW | MEASUREMENT_UNITS_SI and UNIT_DIMENSION_MAPPING are the same seven NamedUnit values in the same order, exported twice from two files with the same … | Yes — same 7 units, same order, twice | No — one aliases the other | No |
-| [x] | **B20** | LOW | Two connected-components implementations, one of them quadratic. | Yes — O(n^2) indexOf+splice vs Set | No — array kept for pop order, Set added for membership | FASTER — O(n) not O(n^2); ordering provably unchanged |
-| [x] | **B21** | LOW | Inline 2-D length/distance re-derived next to an imported primitive that already does it. | Yes — 4 inline sqrt sites next to an imported v2_distance | No | No — layout is cold |

-| | ID | Sev | Finding | Valid? | More complex? | Slower? |
-|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Δv = P·invM; Δω = Iw⁻¹·(r×P) with the identical invM===0 guard, identical sign folding, identic… | Yes — arithmetic identical; signatures differed (module scratch vs param) | No — one module, explicit scratch (the more explicit of the two forms) | No — bit-identical, determinism.spec.js green (14/14) |
-| [x] | **E3** | HIGH | Whole collocated advection family shadows the MAC family and has zero callers. FluidSimulator uses only the v3_mac_* kernels (imports at engine/phy… | Yes — 5 files, zero non-spec importers, MAC family is what the sim uses | No — annotation only; NOT deleted (public library surface) | No |
-| [x] | **E5** | MEDIUM | v3_grid_apply_advection_forward is a slower copy of v3_grid_advect_sl_velocity, and says so in its own docstring. | Yes — its own docstring says it IS v3_grid_advect_sl_velocity(outputs,inputs,inputs...) | No — body becomes a delegation | No — fluid quality gate green |
-| [x] | **E6** | MEDIUM | Selle monotone limiter written four times, twice under the same name limit8 with different signatures in the same directory. | Yes — MAC limit8 = index derivation + grid limit8's clamp core; 2 same-named fns 2 files apart | No — core extracted, MAC's renamed to limit8_at_position | No — comparison order preserved, bit-identical |
-| [~] | **E7** | MEDIUM | Vorticity confinement: the MAC kernel collocates to cell centres and then re-derives the collocated kernel's two passes verbatim. | Yes — passes are character-identical | Extraction forces 3 floats to a module-static per cell instead of registers | RISK — per-cell whole-grid kernel under a measured perf budget; documented, needs a benchmark first |
-| [x] | **E8** | MEDIUM | Two-bone and one-bone IK solvers share a ~75-line terrain-probe + influence prologue verbatim. | Yes — ~75-line prologue shared; audit's 'rival IK solvers' premise was false | n/a — DELEGATED to the engine/ecs agent, which created ik_probe_terrain_contact.js | n/a |
-| [~] | **E12** | MEDIUM | A general 2D half-plane Sutherland–Hodgman clipper exists in core, unused, while narrowphase ships its own. | Yes — same algorithm | n/a | n/a — core uses POINT_EPS 1e-9 slack, physics uses exact <=0; differs exactly on boundary-coincident points, which changes the manifold. Documented. |
-| [x] | **E14** | PROMOTION | tri3_closest_point_barycentric returns barycentrics; all 12 callers immediately reconstruct the world point. The missing primitive is tri3_closest_… | Yes — same operand order as tri3_closest_point, so bit-identical | No | No — physics+determinism green |

-| [x] | **E17** | LOW/MEDIUM | solve_constraints re-derives angular_effective_mass_raw, which was extracted for exactly this purpose. | Yes — angular_effective_mass_raw's body verbatim; its own docstring calls itself the shared kernel | No — 12 lines to 1 call | No — identical operand order by construction |
-| [~] | **E20** | LOW | Unnormalised triangle face normal ((B−A) × (C−A)) inline-derived at five physics sites. | PARTLY — audit says core has 'three names'; actually ONE canonical + two @deprecated aliases | n/a | n/a — tri3_compute_normal NORMALIZES, sites need the raw cross product (magnitude = 2x area, used for degeneracy bails).

-## Outcome
-
-**117 / 117 resolved. 96 changed, 21 closed as REJECTED or DECLINED.**
-
-Full meep suite green throughout: **1541 suites / 9314 tests**, plus the standing gates —
-`determinism.spec.js` (14/14), the fluid `quality.spec.js`, and `second_generation.spec.js`.
-No existing spec was weakened or deleted; several were added.
-
-### What the duplication was actually costing
-
-Not lines — **fixes that reached one copy and not its twin**. Repaired here:
-
-| Fix that had landed | Twin that never got it |
-|---|---|
-| `IndexedDBStorage.store()` settles on transaction commit | `remove()` still settled on the request — a delete was reported durable after its transaction aborted |
-| `inOpen` BitSet replaces the linear `heap.contains` scan | `GridTaskConnectRooms:292` still ran the scan |
-| `BinaryUint32BVH.sort_morton` seeds its stack relative to `stack_top` | `StaticR2Tree` seeded at absolute `stack[0]` — read another traversal's frame when nested |
-| `canvas2d_draw_linear_scale` uses `Math.floor` (with the comment saying why) | `canvas2dDrawWorldAxisLabels` still used `ceil` |
-| `CellFilterGaussianBlur` centres taps at `(samples-1)*0.5` | `PointFitnessGaussianBlur` used `samples/2`, and `size_z = 0` made it return NaN |
-| `array_quick_sort_*` captures the pivot VALUE | `sort_decal_data` compared against the live pivot INDEX |
-| `forward_plus` MaterialTransformer assigns `source.clone()` | the `sh3/gi` twin discarded it and mutated the caller's material |
-| `removeEntityWithEffect` adds the `Transient` guard | the mesh-particle copy leaked effect entities into saves |
-| `ContainerAudioClip.equals()` folds `children` | it had no `hash()` at all; `BlendContainerAudioClip` hashed unequal clips equal |
-| Six of eight BVH traversals contradicted the comment they all shared | specialised queries returned the same set in the opposite order from the generic one |
-
-The heuristic that emerged: **in a duplicated pair, the file carrying the explanatory comment is the
-fixed one, and its twin still has the defect.** It held in every case checked.
-
-### The 21 not changed, and why
-
-Five because the finding was WRONG:
-
-- **A27** — swapping BFF's `interior_angle` for `v3_angle` would corrupt curvature: `v3_angle` returns
-  `acos(0) = PI/2` for degenerate input where BFF returns 0, and BFF accumulates `Omega = 2PI - sum(theta)`.
-- **H19** — `AssetManager` already wraps `loader.load` in try/catch AND does `result.catch(failure)`.
-- **F19** — the proposed substitute yields an arbitrary tangent where a world-up-anchored axis is required.
-- **IV4** — `View.children` is a class field, so the claimed mechanism cannot occur (the real, different
-  defects were fixed).
-- **E20** — core has ONE canonical `tri3_compute_normal` plus two `@deprecated` aliases, not "three names".
-
-The rest because the fix cost more than the duplication: a memory round-trip in a broadphase or per-cell
-loop (**A25**, **E7**), a tolerance difference that changes physics manifolds (**E12**), re-homing 44
-private-field accesses in cache classes with load-bearing list invariants (**B9**), a sign convention
-whose unification changes rendered output (**D7**, and the `sign()`/`sign_not_zero()` divergence in
-**D1**), or an identity array sized to triangle count (**B10**). Each is documented in place so the next
-reviewer does not re-derive the same conclusion.
-
-### Answers to the two standing questions
-
-- **Does it make the code significantly more complex?** No, for every applied item. All were net
-  deletions or additive promotions; the largest single change removed 833 lines of copied GLSL.
-- **Does it make the relevant part significantly slower?** No, for every applied item — and three were
-  declined precisely because they would have. Two are faster: `computeDisconnectedSubGraphs` went from
-  O(n^2) to O(n), and the voxel bake basis is now computed once per tile instead of twice per pixel.
-  Bit-identical output was preserved deliberately where it matters (impulse kernel, Selle limiter,
-  segment-segment lerp form, quaternion nlerp).

+**117 items selected for remediation.**
+
+Each item gets, before any code changes:
+1. **Adversarial review** — is the finding actually valid? (re-read the source; findings were
+   reliable about *what* but unreliable about *where* — see audit §7.)
+2. **Complexity question** — does the fix make the code significantly more complex?
+3. **Performance question** — does the fix make the relevant part of the engine significantly slower?
+
+An item may be closed as **REJECTED** (finding invalid) or **DECLINED** (valid but the fix costs more
+than the duplication) — both are legitimate outcomes and are recorded with the reason.

+| [x] | **A7** | MEDIUM | ConvexHullShape3D and MeshShape3D share five copy-pasted query methods. | Yes — sample_random_point_in_volume token-identical; needs only 2 abstract methods | No — 2 copies removed, 1 base default added | No — 256 contains_point probes dominate the bbox copy |
+| [x] | **A8** | MEDIUM | Bounding box of a flat (x,y,z) buffer re-inlined instead of calling aabb3_from_v3_array. | Yes — same reduction the primitive performs | No, −11 lines x2 | No — same loop, inside recompute |

+| [x] | **A13** | MEDIUM | curl_noise_3d is curl_noise_3dt with w = 0, including the six duplicated decorrelation offsets. | Yes — curl_noise_3dt(w=0) is exactly it | No, 12 lines to 1 | No — 3x sdnoise3 dominates |
+| [x] | **A14** | MEDIUM | m4_compose (object args) and m4_from_rotation_translation_scale (array args) contain the same 45-line quaternion→matrix expansion. | Yes — identical expansion, only operand reads differ | No — one scalar core, both public names kept | No — one static call; V8 inlines |
+| [x] | **A15** | MEDIUM | The boolean segment-segment intersection test is an exact prefix of the point-returning one. | Yes — exact prefix, 13 identical lines | No — shared core, both faces thin | No — one call; boolean discards via module scratch |
+| [x] | **A16** | MEDIUM | Reading a triangular face's three vertex ids / coordinates out of a BinaryTopology is hand-written at ~8 non-spec sites, with inconsistent "is it a… | Yes — 2 copies with INCONSISTENT safety: one checked NULL_POINTER, neither verified triangularity | No — new primitive checks both; call sites shorter | No — same reads plus one loop_read_next triangularity check |
+| [x] | **A17** | MEDIUM | Straight-line vertex-to-vertex distance re-implemented inside both pathfinders while the primitive sits in the same directory — and the two copies … | Yes — 3 spellings incl. hypot vs sqrt (not bit-identical) | No — deletes 2 local fns | No — FASTER; hypot is slower than sqrt |
+| [x] | **A18** | MEDIUM | order_cycle_from and the fan-fill of a boundary loop are copy-pasted between the two hole-closing modules. | Yes — order_cycle_from byte-identical modulo brace formatting | No — extracted to bt_boundary_loop | No — hole-filling is a build-time mesh repair pass |
+| [x] | **A19** | MEDIUM | project_triangle (isometric triangle flattening) duplicated between the two chart parameterisers. | Yes — same algorithm; BFF comment said 'Same as LSCM' | No — promoted to tri3_flatten_isometric | No — build-time atlas path |
+| [x] | **A20** | MEDIUM | qt_collect_by_circle and qt_match_data_by_circle are the same traversal, differing by one predicate conjunct; and the circle queries lost the child… | Yes — same traversal, one predicate conjunct; circle queries lacked push-time pruning | No — one impl + accept_all fn (not a null sentinel) | No — adds 1 indirect call/datum but ALSO adds child pruning box had and circle lacked; net favourable |
+| [x] | **A21** | MEDIUM | Winding-agnostic point-in-tetrahedron and coordinate-form orient3d are file-private in MeshShape3D while the shared versions sit in core/geom/3d. | Yes — determinant expansion character-identical | No — orient3d_fast becomes a 3-line reader | No — contains_point timing unchanged (2260ms vs 2104-2234 baseline) |
+| [~] | **A22** | LOW-MEDIUM | m4_decompose re-derives the whole of m4_extract_scale. | Partly — only the 3 v3_length calls coincide | Would ADD complexity: scratch array + call to share 3 lines | n/a — declined; documented instead (reflection handling makes the two return different scale) |
+| [x] | **A23** | LOW-MEDIUM | Barycentric-weights → 3D point reconstruction re-expanded at five sites instead of a tri3_closest_point primitive. | Yes — 6 sites reconstructed from barycentrics, 3 different namings | No — 6 sites collapse to 1 line each | No — surface-scan helpers, not collision hot path |
+| [x] | **A24** | LOW-MEDIUM | The two atlas_segment_charts variants re-declare the same tuning constants and the same roundness term, with a comment claiming they must stay local. | Yes — and the 'kept local for monomorphism' comment is wrong for constants | No | No — tiny monomorphic fn, V8 inlines |
+| [~] | **A25** | LOW-MEDIUM | The spatial-hash-grid cell walk (read element AABB out of the pool) is duplicated between the circle and line queries, including the same no-dedupl… | Partly — layout constants are ALREADY shared imports; only 4 array reads coincide | Would ADD complexity | YES — forces a scratch round-trip in a broadphase inner loop; documented instead |
+| [x] | **A26** | LOW | Shape hash() methods disagree on the integer mixing function even though combine_hash exists. | Yes — 3 sibling vector types used 3 different mixers; Vector2 omitted |0 entirely | No — hash_mix2/hash_mix3, call sites shorter | No — non-allocating, unlike varargs combine_hash |
+| [~] | **A27** | LOW | BFF's interior_angle re-implements v3_angle from an indexed buffer, using the acos form rather than the atan2-stable form that also exists. | NO — recommendation was WRONG: v3_angle returns acos(0)=PI/2 for degenerate, BFF returns 0 | n/a | n/a — swap would corrupt BFF curvature (Omega = 2PI - sum theta); documented as deliberate |
+| [x] | **A28** | LOW | Two different exported functions named compute_edge_collapse_cost in the same package. | Yes — 2 different exported fns, same name, sibling files | No — rename + deprecated alias | No |
+| [x] | **A29** | LOW | Per-vertex quadric accumulation implemented twice, once per mesh representation, with divergent feature sets. | Partly — normals legitimately differ; only d=-n.v0 + setFromVector4 is shared | No — narrower primitive than proposed | No — per-face, build-time |
+| [x] | **A30** | LOW | read_frustum_corner is v3_copy_array with an index instead of an offset. | Yes — same 3 reads, v3_copy_array already overlap-safe | No | No — per-frame, not per-pixel |

+## Progress log
+
+Newest last. One entry per commit.
+
+---
+
+## Outcome
+
+**117 / 117 resolved. 96 changed, 21 closed as REJECTED or DECLINED.**
+
+Full meep suite green throughout: **1541 suites / 9314 tests**, plus the standing gates —
+`determinism.spec.js` (14/14), the fluid `quality.spec.js`, and `second_generation.spec.js`.
+No existing spec was weakened or deleted; several were added.
+
+### What the duplication was actually costing
+
+Not lines — **fixes that reached one copy and not its twin**. Repaired here:
+
+| Fix that had landed | Twin that never got it |
+|---|---|
+| `IndexedDBStorage.store()` settles on transaction commit | `remove()` still settled on the request — a delete was reported durable after its transaction aborted |
+| `inOpen` BitSet replaces the linear `heap.contains` scan | `GridTaskConnectRooms:292` still ran the scan |
+| `BinaryUint32BVH.sort_morton` seeds its stack relative to `stack_top` | `StaticR2Tree` seeded at absolute `stack[0]` — read another traversal's frame when nested |
+| `canvas2d_draw_linear_scale` uses `Math.floor` (with the comment saying why) | `canvas2dDrawWorldAxisLabels` still used `ceil` |
+| `CellFilterGaussianBlur` centres taps at `(samples-1)*0.5` | `PointFitnessGaussianBlur` used `samples/2`, and `size_z = 0` made it return NaN |
+| `array_quick_sort_*` captures the pivot VALUE | `sort_decal_data` compared against the live pivot INDEX |
+| `forward_plus` MaterialTransformer assigns `source.clone()` | the `sh3/gi` twin discarded it and mutated the caller's material |
+| `removeEntityWithEffect` adds the `Transient` guard | the mesh-particle copy leaked effect entities into saves |
+| `ContainerAudioClip.equals()` folds `children` | it had no `hash()` at all; `BlendContainerAudioClip` hashed unequal clips equal |
+| Six of eight BVH traversals contradicted the comment they all shared | specialised queries returned the same set in the opposite order from the generic one |
+
+The heuristic that emerged: **in a duplicated pair, the file carrying the explanatory comment is the
+fixed one, and its twin still has the defect.** It held in every case checked.
+
+### The 21 not changed, and why
+
+Five because the finding was WRONG:
+
+- **A27** — swapping BFF's `interior_angle` for `v3_angle` would corrupt curvature: `v3_angle` returns
+  `acos(0) = PI/2` for degenerate input where BFF returns 0, and BFF accumulates `Omega = 2PI - sum(theta)`.
+- **H19** — `AssetManager` already wraps `loader.load` in try/catch AND does `result.catch(failure)`.
+- **F19** — the proposed substitute yields an arbitrary tangent where a world-up-anchored axis is required.
+- **IV4** — `View.children` is a class field, so the claimed mechanism cannot occur (the real, different
+  defects were fixed).
+- **E20** — core has ONE canonical `tri3_compute_normal` plus two `@deprecated` aliases, not "three names".
+
+The rest because the fix cost more than the duplication: a memory round-trip in a broadphase or per-cell
+loop (**A25**, **E7**), a tolerance difference that changes physics manifolds (**E12**), re-homing 44
+private-field accesses in cache classes with load-bearing list invariants (**B9**), a sign convention
+whose unification changes rendered output (**D7**, and the `sign()`/`sign_not_zero()` divergence in
+**D1**), or an identity array sized to triangle count (**B10**). Each is documented in place so the next
+reviewer does not re-derive the same conclusion.
+
+### Answers to the two standing questions
+
+- **Does it make the code significantly more complex?** No, for every applied item. All were net
+  deletions or additive promotions; the largest single change removed 833 lines of copied GLSL.
+- **Does it make the relevant part significantly slower?** No, for every applied item — and three were
+  declined precisely because they would have. Two are faster: `computeDisconnectedSubGraphs` went from
+  O(n^2) to O(n), and the voxel bake basis is now computed once per tile instead of twice per pixel.
+  Bit-identical output was preserved deliberately where it matters (impulse kernel, Selle limiter,
+  segment-segment lerp form, quaternion nlerp).
