The replacement gate proposed this morning is refuted by a control run
this afternoon. Independent noise lowers the correlation to 0.828
without narrowing the underlying signal and reaches the same measured
width as a field whose captions omit one factor -- 15.7 against 15.0 --
with recovery at 94.7% and 5.6%. A second instrument built specifically
to fix that, counting canonical directions that generalise to held-out
scenes, fails the same way and rates Visual Genome highest of the three
failing fields.
Established: the correlation does not govern recovery, in both
directions. Corpus overlap does control it -- the caption-suppression
ladder is monotone from 96.4% to 0.0%. Not established: any statistic
that predicts recovery cheaply. Documents corrected accordingly rather
than quietly rephrased; the refuted claim stood for four hours and is
recorded as such.

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.

A controlled truncation refutes the project's central go/no-go rule.
Projecting the recovering synthetic fields to rank r holds the field
correlation at 0.902-0.929 while recovery moves 6.2% -> 12.9% -> 95.6%
across ranks 4, 8, 16. A field past the supposed 0.9 threshold recovers
13%, so correlation neither predicts nor forbids recovery and the width
of the shared spectrum is what moves it.
The gate becomes a joint condition on correlation and shared width,
measured by principal angles against a scene-shuffled null. Neither
suffices alone: 18 shared directions at 0.508 fails, 11 at 0.902 fails.
With the old gate retired, natural data was finally searched: 0.0000
against 0.0039 chance. The old verdict was right, its reasoning was not.
Also closes route D by measurement. rho_IT ~ sqrt(4 log N / N) rises as N
falls, and at N = 16 through 96 the deepest state a strong searcher
reaches is deeper than the truth in 3/3 replicates at every size.
Free gains: eigenvalue-weighted projection over a wide basis with
128-dim text vectors takes the correlation 0.656 -> 0.716 and shared
width 10 -> 16. Hubness refuted as an inflation hypothesis.
Moving the per-image segmentation eigendecomposition onto the GPU cut
batch time from 130s to 1.9s.

A rank-truncation ladder from four to full rank returns chance accuracy
at the natural-data correlation of 0.656, as does full-rank spectral
initialisation with refinement. Coarse-to-sharp smoothing widens basins
and thins decoys, and recovers nothing, so below the polynomial
threshold the deficit is information the algorithm class cannot use
rather than a basin it cannot find. Solver-side candidates should wait
on the correlation instead of competing with it.

The natural-data obstruction decomposes into field correlation, landscape
shape, search strength, problem size, and orthogonal signal, and every
candidate attacks exactly one. Records what is measured, what is running,
and what is specified but unstarted, so branches can be eliminated in
cost order rather than by preference.
