Giorgio Gilestro 612be58433 introduction rewritten: setting, diagnosis, question — nothing else
The Introduction is halved (1,360 -> 654 words, four paragraphs): the
model-population setting; the data-coupled generations + the thesis
sentence; the drift diagnosis placed in the literature; and the
motivating question (the four operator decisions with no principled
guidance + the continual-learning framing), closing on the value
anticipation without disclosing results. Evicted and rehomed: the
interpretation/explanation/prediction ladder (deleted — its content
lives in the calibrated Results and ledger); the answers-list (deleted —
results belong in Results); the correspondence walk-through (Muller's
ratchet moved to the minimal-model section with its scope clause;
immigration/Fisher-Muller/BDM citations anchored where the concepts are
developed in Results; the Livnat precursor and predictor-delta moved to
the Discussion ledger); the tiers-of-evidence and negative-results-
prominence sentences (deleted). The continual-learning operator mapping
moved into the Discussion block, retitled "Continual learning at the
population scale", deduplicated against its five offers. All 66
references wholesale-renumbered to the new first-appearance order and
the list reordered (invariant verified: in-text order = 1..66 = list).
