+### RESULT 66 (2026-07-28): THE HEAD IS THROTTLED TO 60% — user's equivalent-LR hypothesis
+CONFIRMED and localized to ONE matrix; symmetrization/precision/depth all irrelevant to it.
+Displacement micro-probe (600 steps from s250000, ||dW||/||W|| per family): every family
+IDENTICAL EP-vs-BP (ratio 1.00-1.02) EXCEPT W_out: EP 0.0068 vs BP 0.0114 = 60%. Muon-managed
+blocks are magnitude-immune (msign); W_out lives on the Adam island where step ~ m/sqrt(v) —
+the EP head-read's per-coordinate temporal coherence is lower, v inflates ~2.8x, Adam throttles
+the loss-facing matrix by 40%. Explains R44 (gap lives head-side), the anneal freeze (head
+can't track features), and width-scaling (louder states -> stronger throttle).
+BATTERY 1 (all closed ~0% of the 0.0685 leak): centered 0%, fp32 +3%, K8 (arm died, rerun
+pending) — the throttle source is INVARIANT to estimator symmetry, precision, and relax depth:
+it is the shared structure of the EP W_out read, not removable noise. (cos flat 0.986-0.988
+through the losing segment; EP gn 0.15, clip never fires — user's checklist all measured.)
+FA-argument (user): static direction quality exonerated a priori — FA learns at cos 0.3.
+BATTERY 2 IN FLIGHT: leak_headmix (--bpmix head = the head's share of the leak, diagnostic
+ceiling), leak_hlr17 / leak_hlr25 (--head_lr_mult, the zero-cost compensation candidate).
+If hlr claws back what headmix shows, the width fix is ONE hyperparameter.

SAME state (20x the trajectory-averaged rate: front-loaded/self-adapting), screening battery 1
