+"""
+Partial protocol audit on the penalized DFA results.
+
+The existing dfa_residual_penalty_test.py only logs the deepest residual
+norm (||h_L||) and the layer-2 BP grad (||g_2||) per epoch — not all
+layer norms — so we cannot compute the protocol's (a) diagnostic exactly
+(which needs ‖h_{l+1}‖ / ‖h_l‖ for every block). However, we have enough
+information to compute (b) exactly and to bound (a) and (d) tightly.
+
+This script reports the partial protocol verdict on the 3-seed penalized
+DFA condition (lam=1e-2) and shows that even *with* the scale pathology
+prevented by the penalty, the diagnostic protocol still walks back the
+result via (d) — the frozen-blocks baseline test. This is the cleanest
+possible evidence of the second failure mode: "scale fixed, but the deep
+blocks are still passive".
