DINOv2-large, twice the depth of base and wider, leaves the shared count
at exactly 15 and moves the correlation by less than the segmentation
noise floor. Four vision-side interventions now raise the vision field's
own rank and leave the intersection alone.

The cheap tier of the register is exhausted. What remains is a corpus
chosen for naturally wide overlap, promoted to the central bet, and the
unbalanced formulation, promoted to the critical path since such a
corpus is unlikely to arrive in bijection.

Suppressing one factor block from the synthetic captions -- vision still
sees the property, nothing else changes -- costs five shared directions
and the entire result: 96.4% recovery to 5.6%, at a correlation of 0.830
that is higher than anything achieved on photographs.

The synthetic world degraded to Visual Genome's shared width fails
exactly the way Visual Genome fails, at a correlation Visual Genome
never reaches. That closes the chain: how much of the same world the two
corpora describe sets the width, the width sets recovery, and the
correlation reports on neither reliably.

Also records the Delta compute-node offline trap in DELTA_HPC.md, and
marks the superseded verdict in NATURAL_RESULTS.

NATURAL_RESULTS keeps its verdict paragraph but flags that the statistic
behind it does not govern recovery, and that the search has since been
run. SYNTH_RESULTS gets a note on the parenthesis that turned out to be
the whole story: structured fields are low-rank, the threshold formula
assumes full-rank noise, and the caveat sat unfollowed for months.

The user-facing statement still carried the retired correlation
threshold. Adds the correction, the joint condition that replaces it,
the width diagnosis, and the closure of the shrink-N route.
