 "title": "Two independent runs reproduced the same bus threshold to the digit and then disagreed completely about what caused it",
 "symptom": "A measurement that repeats exactly feels settled, and the explanation printed alongside it inherits that confidence. It should not. Running the identical challenge twice, on the same hardware, with the same model and harness, and with no lessons injected, the numbers came back identical: the APDS-9960 first errored at 781,250 Hz on the wire in both runs, the LSM6DSOX was clean to 2,403,846 Hz in both, bus rise time was 288 ns on both lines in both, and both concluded the limit follows the part rather than its position on the chain. The mechanism sections were irreconcilable.",
