#!/usr/bin/env python3 """Reproduce physical-bias scaling diagnostics from Dillavou et al. data. This is a descriptive reanalysis of already published data, not a prospective confirmation. It reads only the small-network CSV files from Zenodo record 15692914 (release v1.0.1), records their hashes, and measures the low-period power laws reported in the paper: * nonzero combined-error plateau as the task-switching period decreases; * squared cycle span proportional to approximately period squared; * therefore a nonzero cycle-speed proxy span / period. The script also audits the released two-dimensional bow-tie trajectories.
