Pilot v1: full and no_grounding indistinguishable - both arms pay a ~25%
distillation tax per generation and pin at the same mutation-selection floor,
so grounding has no differential to act on. v2 raises inheritance fidelity
(n_inherit 240->600, child epochs 2->3, founders 600x3) and adds two evenly-
applied knobs: elitism (top parent survives as an unmodified copy - overlapping
generations, compensating for lossy distillation where E11 had faithful
genotype copying) and n_parents (sharper truncation selection). v1 archived at
results/llm_society_pilot1; v2 running.
