DESIGN.md 38.6 concluded the three crinkliness modes were inert against the
circulation-deletion incentive. Two things were wrong with that measurement.
Its premise, 38.2, is retracted. And its script selected leaves with the
pre-39.4 prefix rule `type[:1].upper() in ("C","O")`, which sweeps every
programme room starting with c or o -- cr1, of1 -- in as circulation.
The simpler problem is that none of the three modes ever touched the leaves
ssz is about. quality_uncrinkliness reaches `if not crink` before any mode
logic that matters, so for a zero-exposure leaf: floor returns 0.01 (one
percent of a unit quality, multiplied into a product and weighed against a
whole leaf's cost -- inert); compact_ok is self-contradictory, announcing
that compact is not a defect and then returning the floor for the most
compact case of all; exempt_circulation reaches at most a third of them.
Measured: 0% / 0% / 0% / 21-33% of buried leaves rescued.
What the buried leaves are, now that 39.7 gives every space a usage: two
thirds of them are spaces that architecturally do not want a window --
stores, WCs, plant, corridors, covered courtyards -- scored identically
with a windowless bedroom. harbor 22/33, maple 33/46, health 9/18.
- crinkliness_mode="usage_daylight": daylight required of the uses a
person occupies (programme.DAYLIGHT_USAGES) and nothing else. Elsewhere
the factor is clipped on the compact side only, so being buried stops
being a defect while over-exposure still costs -- a crinkly leaf costs
envelope whatever it is used for. A windowless bedroom stays the hard
zero it is under stock: 11/11, 13/13, 9/9 still failing.
- compact_ok repaired to score the buried limit as compact, the behaviour
its name always claimed. It now rescues 100% including bedrooms, and is
kept as the upper-bound control, not a candidate.
- ab_ssz_search.py: the fixed-budget search A/B ssz's acceptance criteria
actually asks for. Every arm is optimised under its own objective and
re-scored under stock urb, because the permissive modes return 1.0
where stock fails and would otherwise win by deleting a fail category.
- ab_crinkliness_mode_ssz.py: prefix rule fixed, retracted premise
flagged in its docstring.
- 38.7's remaining claims from the retracted 38.2/38.3 corrected.
Default is unchanged ("urb"), byte-identical to all prior runs. Lint at
parity (46 pre-existing); tests 366 passed, 10 new, same 7 pre-existing
fixture failures (homemaker-py-bdf).
