 | Oral-A A1/A2 | 5 | BP reached 91.62%; short channel-gated SDIL reached 41.98% versus tuned DFA at 37.16% | Development screening alone cannot raise the score |
 | Oral-A A3 fails | 5 | Full ResNet-20 SDIL became nonfinite at epoch 89 and ended at 10%; DFA ended finite at 33.06% | Standard-scale and oral-A claims are closed; A4 remains untouched |
+| Oral-A-v2 causal capture fails | 5 | Structured perturbation improves early/all-layer alignment 6.5x/4.5x but misses the frozen early gate | Mechanism diagnosis sharpens; no full standard-scale endpoint opens |
