Mark the superseded gate claims in the earlier results documents
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.

guides rather than proves.)
+*Added 2026-08-01: that parenthesis was the whole story and we left it
+as a parenthesis. Structured means low-rank, and the threshold formula
+assumes full-rank noise, which is why the 0.9 figure later turned out to

**Correlation and identifiability are different axes.** The colour
channel alone reaches rho = 0.863, far above the mixed descriptor, but
its scenes collide: only 126 distinct colour multisets among 256 scenes,
