Clean gate FAILED: raw mAP50 0.423908 versus historical 0.426627, beyond tolerance 0.001. No nonzero treatment inference ran.
Representation first. Occlusion second.
The exact recovered detector was evaluated on 86 protected frames from two videos. These retrospective detector studies have their own records; the frozen Phase 22 simulation verdict remains separate.
Q95 reproduced all four historical clean metrics. 86 × five representations = 430 cases. Raw and Q95 had zero binary success transitions; raw and lossless PNG predictions were identical.
86 × six frozen centered-mask doses = 516 cases. Masks use Q95 canonical pixels; nonzero treatments are lossless PNGs. This result does not change the original failed sweep.
53 to 48 detected targets across the grid.
Object recall changed from 61.6% at zero dose to 55.8% at nominal 75% occlusion. Best target IoU changed from 0.609 to 0.554; best-overlap confidence from 0.312 to 0.065. Each dose contains the same 86 source frames.

| Requested occlusion | Mean box visibility | Object recall | Frame success | FP/frame | Best IoU | Best-overlap confidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.0% | 100.0% | 53/86 · 61.6% | 53/86 | 275.30 | 0.609 | 0.312 |
| 15.0% | 85.0% | 52/86 · 60.5% | 52/86 | 279.17 | 0.604 | 0.249 |
| 30.0% | 69.8% | 50/86 · 58.1% | 50/86 | 282.09 | 0.598 | 0.178 |
| 45.0% | 55.4% | 51/86 · 59.3% | 51/86 | 283.57 | 0.571 | 0.101 |
| 60.0% | 40.1% | 50/86 · 58.1% | 50/86 | 283.14 | 0.561 | 0.068 |

Frame success requires all targets to match and permits false positives. This recall uses the frozen confidence floor 0.001 and IoU ≥ 0.50. Aggregate clean-gate recall uses the official evaluator's operating point and is a different measure.
V2 retains the original runner's per-dose prediction path; Stage A exported a validation pass. Zero-dose frame success is 53/86 in v2 and 51/86 in Stage A's Q95 validation pass. These different execution passes retain their original preprocessing defaults; this count difference is not an additional representation transition.
Where do the observed losses begin?
33 of the 86 frames already fail at zero added dose. Among the 53 clean successes, first sampled new losses occur for two frames at requested occlusion 15%, three at 30% and two at 75%; 46 have no sampled new loss. One frame recovers after an earlier loss.
The confidence and localization summaries decline across doses, while recall is modestly and nonmonotonically lower. No preregistered breakpoint exists, and these six points do not establish a universal abrupt threshold.
Scene-specific vulnerability is concentrated in land_pad: 33/66 to 28/66 matched frames. land_pad2 retains 20/20 at every sampled dose. There is only one annotated object class; this does not establish a causal object-size effect or generalize to other scenes.

86 paired sources. Two dependent videos.
516 cases are repeated views of 86 source frames. The original plan supports descriptive paired changes from dose zero and adjacent-dose transitions, with no population significance tests or confidence intervals. No preregistered threshold criterion exists: threshold finding is NOT APPLICABLE.
Best-overlap confidence is the score of the prediction with greatest target overlap. Matched-TP IoU and confidence are survivor-only summaries in the downloadable tables. Confidence is a model score, not a probability of a safe landing. Annotation-box visibility is not measured physical pad surface visibility. Previously inspected frames and this single synthetic intervention do not establish flight safety or independent-session generalization.

The lost original implementation/runtime receipt remains unavailable. The recovered publication runner reproduces both complete historical geometry manifests. V2 records its own Stage A CPU runtime and clean gate; it is not relabeled as the Phase 23 CUDA runtime. The latest saved-artifact check replayed 145,169 predictions, 516 frame rows and 516 target rows.
