1ae950cb7c paper: response to the external review + the last outstanding fix
paper/response-to-review.md: point-by-point response covering the
claim-narrowing revision (interpretation/explanation/prediction ladder,
drift/ratchet scoping, merge-operator boundaries, speciation scope
block, the claims table, control-theory->framework, the three supporting
overstatements) and the new experiments run in answer to the review —
full-symmetry alignment, the pre-registered emergent null, LLM-tier
speciation, multi-seed replication, and the decisive epistasis-predicts
experiment with its control axis and its honestly-failed internal
prediction. Two mild push-backs stated; open items listed; invites
another iteration.

Also fixes the one §4 review point not yet addressed in the text: §11's
"unbounded growth of capability" close is rewritten — the architecture
removes the STORAGE obstacle to indefinite accumulation; that is
bookkeeping, not a demonstration of unbounded capability growth.
