gbanyan 12637cd413 Phase 6 manuscript splice (2/2): §IV / §V / §VI spliced
Lands v4.0 §IV / §V / §VI content into v3.20.0 master sub-files.
Strips internal close-out checklists, draft notes, and open-questions
blocks at splice. Completes the Phase 6 manuscript-master file
assembly.

§IV Results (paper_a_results_v3.md):
- §IV-A..C: kept v3.20.0 inherited content (experimental setup,
  detection performance, all-pairs distribution); added v4 scope
  note (Big-4 primary) at the §IV header
- §IV-D..K: replaced v3.20.0 §IV-D..H with v4.0 §IV-D..K (Big-4
  distributional / mixture / convergence / LOOO / pixel-identity /
  inter-CPA reference / five-way classification / full-dataset
  robustness)
- §IV-L: renumbered v3.20.0 §IV-I (backbone ablation) content to
  match v4's "§IV-L inherited from v3.20.0 §IV-I" reframing
- §IV-M: appended v4.0 ICCR calibration tables (XX-XXVI):
  composition decomposition, per-comparison/per-signature/
  per-document ICCRs, firm heterogeneity + cross-firm hit matrix,
  alert-rate sensitivity
- §III-K ablation cross-ref updated to §IV-L (was §IV-I)
- Phase 3 close-out checklist (lines 365+) stripped

§V Discussion (paper_a_discussion_v3.md):
- Replaced v3.20.0 §V with v4.0 §V (8 sub-sections A-H):
  A. Distinct problem framing
  B. Continuous quality spectrum + composition-driven multimodality
  C. Firm A as templated end (case study, not anchor)
  D. K=2 / K=3 descriptive partitions
  E. Three-score convergent internal-consistency
  F. Anchor-based multi-level calibration
  G. Pixel-identity hard positive anchor + ICCR reframing
  H. Limitations (14 items: 9 v4-specific + 5 inherited from v3.x)

§VI Conclusion (paper_a_conclusion_v3.md):
- Replaced v3.20.0 §VI with v4.0 §VI (8 contribution items mirroring
  §I contributions; 4-direction future work).

Known splice-time issue (deferred to typesetting): §IV table numbering
is sequential by label (V, VI, ..., XXVI) but Table XIX (document-level
worst-case) appears physically before Tables XVI/XVII/XVIII in §IV-J
narrative flow. IEEE Access typesetters typically normalize table order
during typesetting; we accept the in-file ordering quirk to preserve
the §IV-J narrative arc (per-signature -> document-level worst-case ->
K=3 cross-tab). Renumbering to strictly-ascending physical order would
require renaming Tables XVI/XVII/XVIII -> XVII/XVIII/XIX with
downstream cross-reference updates; deferred unless partner Jimmy
review or IEEE Access submission portal flags it.

Manuscript splice complete. Working drafts in paper/v4/ retained as
archive of the round-by-round Phase 5 fix history.
