Qualify an exact integer source-bound implementation

Short runtime profiles identify repeated general-fraction construction as a substantial cost. This candidate represents binary inputs as exact integers over powers of two. Arbitrary rational value endpoints remain exact; nonbinary row inputs retain the original fallback. No rounded arithmetic replaces an exact sum, and no physical assumption changes.

Repeat the complete native software-control matrix as a separately frozen implementation qualification: all three candidates, both processing cases, center, stationary-pose, derivative and nonlinear-containment paths. Compare against every saved source-derivative predecessor bound. Require identical centers, all three coefficient matrices, physical bindings, source counts and error-remainder components, not merely containment of sampled points.

Separate finite allowance

Component tests compare exact-rational outputs, extreme binary scales, both source phases and malformed inputs. Native equality is a separate requirement. Passing this study cannot establish long-history speed, narrower ranges, whole-program roundoff coverage or calibrated observational uncertainty. Those checks need their own finite freezes.
