AI REASONING — FUTURE-FIELD GEOMETRY

Coarse-to-fine collapse

Legacy Case A supporting view. At each populated checkpoint, the original instrument sampled M=64 continuations and projected the resulting finite field four ways. The bands show the reported sequence under that declared instrument: residue, scaffold family, parameter, then answer.

Legacy Case AFinite-M / instrument-relative

25% PREFIX family-concentrated, parameter-diverse — the central decoupling
L1 Residue fiber q₁(Y) = Y mod 8 — —
L2 Scaffold family q₂(Y) = 𝟙[Y ∈ 8ℤ] — —

wrong-fiber mass target Y* = 532 target-fiber escape M = 64 continuations per checkpoint

How to read. Each band is a different push-forward of the same sampled future-field measure μπK,B through a coarsening map. Endpoint evaluation only sees L4. The earlier layers show a sampled target-excluding concentration before the answer projection concentrates. At 25%, the M=64 readout is family-concentrated and parameter-diverse; by 50%, the answer projection is concentrated. These are finite-sample observations under the declared instrument, not a proof that all continuations are impossible.
