Built examples/harbor-house-l0/ (10 explicit level:0 codes, 13 instances,
single-storey constraints) and ran the memetic search from a bare plot. Best
33 fails at 20000 evals; whole population stuck 33–35, deep in the 0.5^n
high-fail regime. Fail histogram is dominated by 'missing' (13/33 = 39%): the
counted space m×3 is never constructed, with adjacency/access/size fails
downstream of the unbuilt room set.
Verdict: per-floor CONSTRUCTION is the bottleneck, not multi-storey coupling —
c4c.2 (programme-aware construction + missing-room repair) is the prerequisite
and staging (c4c.3) alone won't rescue it. Closes homemaker-py-c4c.1.
