improves accuracy when repeated recalibration is unavailable.

+R5 gave the intercept tracker and affine SDIL exactly the same first
+2/4/8/16 neutral observations, then disabled all further probes. It used the
+10,000/2,000 centered-EP development split for one epoch. Holdout accuracy was:
+
+| upfront probes | intercept tracker | affine SDIL | SDIL minus intercept |
+|---:|---:|---:|---:|
+| 2 | 43.75% | 44.05% | +0.30 points |
+| 4 | 41.30% | 38.10% | -3.20 points |

+The present normalized-LMS affine predictor does not turn a small matched
+upfront calibration budget into a reliable downstream advantage. Three of
+four budgets lose to retaining the last measured intercept. This closes
+cadence/probe-budget tuning for the current predictor; further work must change
+the local identification rule and then re-enter through a new development
+screen rather than scaling this implementation.
