CIFAR-100, d=256 L=4, 100ep, 3 seeds. Frozen baseline (BP-frozen) = 0.178.

DFA      0.088 ± 0.001    +0.029 ± 0.001   ~2e8       ~9e-9      YES (all 3)
Frozen   0.178             —                —          —          baseline

Both FA and DFA are below frozen at ALL 3 seeds with positive cosine.
FA cos is +0.23 (clearly positive). DFA cos is +0.03 (small but positive).
Both are well above chance (1% for 100 classes).
BP is ~0.32, well above frozen (trustworthy control).

This is the paper's strongest qualifying setting because it uses the
SAME architecture (d=256 L=4) as the main CIFAR-10 audit — only the
task difficulty changes.
