- paper/pnas -> paper/manuscript (venue-neutral)
- configs/layer1 -> configs/inheritance, src/knowledge -> src/inheritance
(imported as `inheritance`), make layer1 -> make inheritance; layer2 alias dropped
- inheritance and trained-network bundles named after the manuscript figure
they feed (fig2_grounding_sweep, figS3_rebaselining, ...), or descriptively
where they feed none; configs keep their `experiment:` value so parquet
hashes are unchanged, only output.dir moves
- figure scripts, SI figure sources, notebooks, REPRODUCING.md, README and the
SI Methods/tables updated; make clean no longer deletes tracked manifests;
reproduce.sh hashes the s{seed}/ layouts too

Clarity pass over the main text (36-item audit), Discussion rewrite and cut,
acknowledgements, Souly et al. as ref 62, lettered SI panels, model section
moved under Results; plus the untracked curriculum/society/compose/smol
configs, runners, figures, stats and tests that the SI already cites.

A new analytic experiment on an orthogonal evolution-of-sex axis: not the
recombination RATE (E9) but the population's mating STRUCTURE. Agents on a
ring recombine with a second parent drawn from a window of breadth b
(b->0 monogamous/isolation-by-distance, b=1 promiscuous/panmictic), under
local selection, swept against NK ruggedness K.
Finding: the optimal mate-pool breadth SHRINKS as skills get more
entangled. Wide/promiscuous merging wins the champion on additive
landscapes (K<=3, b=0.6), but on rugged ones (K>=6) it prematurely
converges to a worse champion and an intermediate breadth (b~0.35) wins;
pure monogamy over-fragments. Throughout, promiscuity monotonically lifts
the population MEAN but destroys diversity and parallel exploration. The
design rule extends E9: merge widely for additive skills, keep
island-structured sub-populations for entangled ones — a merging-native
axis the panmixia-assuming literature lacks.
- src/knowledge/mating_system.py + experiment.py dispatch (kind: mating_system)
- configs/layer1/E14.yaml (breadth x K sweep, 20 reps, bitwise-reproducible)
- figures/plot_E14.py; results/E14/ (figure, README, manifest, resolved config)
- tests/test_mating_system.py (+5, 147 green); make layer1 wired
- folded into both papers (full + accessible) as the third §5 result
