 full-field delta rule with far less irrelevant spatial variance.  It does not
 retroactively reopen or relabel the failed frozen Oral-A protocol.
 
+The subsequent V3 mechanism estimates the required A/G matrix statistics
+directly by perturbing the vectorizer parameter subspace. It remains
+forward-only and uses two causal loss queries per direction. Its exact and
+BatchNorm JVP identities, delta rule, and matched synthetic variance comparison

 `experiments/finalize_accept.sh` additionally requires strict imports of the
 frozen BurstCCN and Dual Propagation author-code runs. Both records now pass;
 the accept-bar mechanical audit is green. The standard ResNet branch stopped
