+// A rig — the minimum both sides of a retarget need: a bone hierarchy, its rest pose, and a way to
+// sample an animated pose at a time. Built from either an FBX scene (the clip donor) or a glTF
+// Document (the model being animated), so the retargeter never sees the difference.
+//
+// Rotations are carried as quaternions composed up the chain rather than extracted from world
+// matrices. That is only valid while every scale in the chain is uniform — `checkUniformScale`
+// enforces it, because a non-uniform scale makes "the world rotation of this bone" meaningless.
+//
+// The pose a rig is MEASURED AGAINST is its BIND pose (inverse of the skin's inverse-bind matrices),
+// not the TRS sitting on its nodes. Those two are the same in a clean export, but an FBX carrying
+// baked clips routinely stores whatever pose the exporter last evaluated — the polyperfect wolf's
+// node pose is 0.37 m away from its bind pose on a 1.5 m animal. Measuring a retarget delta from
+// that is measuring from nothing, so `bind` is what the retargeter anchors on and node TRS is only
+// the fallback for bones no skin binds (leaf tips, helpers).
