Closes the three concrete splice blockers codex round-8 surfaced
in the post-round-2 drafts, plus the binary-collapse terminology
residue. No empirical changes.
- Abstract trimmed 261 -> 247 words (3 under IEEE Access <=250
target). Cut "technically trivial and visually invisible,"
(S1 motivational redundancy) and the within-firm-rate
parenthetical "(Firm A 98.8%; Firms B/C/D 76.7-83.7%)" plus
"between" connector; preserved the corrected 77-99% any-pair
headline so the M3 substance survives.
- §IV-J Table XV sample-size footnote (line 177) corrected:
round-2 misclassified §IV-M.5 as descriptor-complete n=150,442;
Script 44 / Tables XXIV-XXV actually use vector-complete
n=150,453, same as §IV-M.2 Table XXI (Script 40b) and §IV-M.3
Table XXII (Script 43). New footnote distinguishes
descriptor-complete (§IV-D through §IV-J) from
vector/pair-recomputed (§IV-M.2/M.3/M.5; Scripts 40b/43/44).
- §IV-I (line 161) stale cross-reference: "§IV-M Table XVI" was
the K=3 firm cross-tab (descriptive), not the v4-new ICCR
calibration. Replaced with "§IV-M Tables XXI-XXVI" — the full
ICCR calibration block. Pre-existing error exposed by the
round-2 cascade.
- §III line 131 + §IV Table XI line 104 binary-collapse label:
"replicated vs not-replicated" -> "replication-dominated vs
less-replication-dominated" for consistency with the K=3
descriptor-position framing. "Replicated class" preserved
where it refers to byte-identical positive-anchor ground
truth (§III-K.4, §IV-H lines 143/153/155).
