Layer 1 complete: E3-E6 + E2 analysis add-ons
Finishes the Layer 1 analytical core. All six experiments run with honest, publication-quality figures; 71 tests green. - E3 region-matched grounding: `grounding.exercised` knob + per-region tail survival. Matched holds the exercised region's tail (0.49) where uniform spreads thin and lets it collapse (0.07). - E4 multi-teacher recombination: `run_coverage` runner. Union coverage matches U(K_T,rho,q) exactly. Finding: mean-mixture distillation shows NO surviving benefit (a conservation law — 1/K_T dilution cancels the union gain); a union-preserving max-merge (M2N2-style) does. E4 reports both operators. - E5 QD vs greedy: greedy drives fixation (H~0.01); QD holds H at 0.48-0.88, rising with the novelty exponent. - E6 re-mint gate: `arm` multi-override sweep. Re-minting a collapsed lineage locks in divergence of KL-to-original; gating on diversity prevents it. - E2 analysis add-ons (from the companion work order, numbers verified): new analysis.py (reduce_to_stationary, critical_grounding with bootstrap CI -> g*=0.048, 95% CI [0.047,0.050]); tail_band_metrics + per-band logging; the E2 figure rebuilt as a 2x2 (defined g*+CI, g=0 flagged as a finite-time artifact, tail item-vs-mass, per-rarity-band panel). Uses truth-mass-weighted tail coverage rather than the raw (martingale) tail_mass. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Quality-diversity vs greedy selection (blueprint 2.5-E5). Modest grounding gives a true
|
||||
# stationary state (so items can be re-introduced); selection then shapes it. Greedy
|
||||
# (directional, fitness-proportional) drives toward the fittest items -> low H; qd (adds a
|
||||
# novelty bonus w_i ∝ f_i·p_i^{-alpha}) resists fixation -> higher stationary H. Sweep the
|
||||
# novelty exponent alpha. Prediction: qd holds higher stationary H (and tail survival)
|
||||
# than greedy at matched grounding.
