Round 3 orders, all six. The validator move landed in 4803b6a (swept into
LANE-SCREEN's commit by the shared index); this is the rest.
- heat retune: round 2's numbers were below the sim's always-on cooling, so
nothing could ever warm up. Decoder now 100 gen at 0.0033 heat / 0.001 cool
-> throttles 10.2s, scrams 14.5s, 23.9s cycle, 25.8/s average (1.29x the
ASIC). Verified against LANE-SIM's real sim, not just arithmetic.
- powerGen had to move: the scram/restart hysteresis forces ~30% duty, so at
55 gen the decoder averaged worse than a steady ASIC and nobody would build
one.
- two new tests refuse decorative heat (per-tick and per-craft). They caught a
fresh instance of the same bug in chart-stco-map before it shipped.
- bufferCap 240 -> 300: one tank now covers exactly one decoder scram.
- ASIC COOLER spec'd (aura deferred to M4, no contract field requested yet);
THE MUXER + moov brain sub-lines; reel + broadcast era tech.

Per the v3 units ruling, stored is bandwidth-seconds and draw-gen is bandwidth
per second, so stored/(draw-gen) is literally how long until the lights go out.
Tremor ramps over the last 8 seconds. That reads correct at every factory size
for free: 1000/s with 4000 banked feels exactly as doomed as 10/s with 40.
A factory in surplus is always calm, which is also what keeps the boot state
(gen=draw=stored=0) sterile by construction rather than by special case.
Fever averages only the machines that run hot, so one glowing decoder is not
drowned by a sea of cold belts.
Pure and snapshot-shaped so the sterile guarantee is a test, not a promise.
