Reference factory holds: melt at tick 1247, still shipping at 20,000,
demuxer never jams. Heat curve and scram/throttle decisions documented.
Main thing for the orchestrator: data/ has none of the v2 fields, so heat
and buffer tanks are implemented and tested but inert in the real game --
the software decoder cannot overheat until DATA gives it a heatPerTick.
Suggested starting values included. One contract request: coolPerTick.

Reports the M1 melt chain working (tick 1149) and two things the
orchestrator needs to decide: the DoD chain no longer exists after
LANE-DATA's codex landed (mosh now eats gop-crate, melt is 8 machines
deep), and the M1 factory deadlocks at ~tick 1200 on byproduct surplus
with no legal overflow. Proposes splitters as the fix.
