ONE palette gate replaces four feature-picked ones

Browse Source 
Oliver, on the brute's fall frames: "now the fall zombie has a different skin
tone.. man this is all so tiresome." Both halves were right. The skin IS twenty
points lighter across that sheet, and the tiresome part is mine: I had been
adding one hand-picked gate per drift I discovered — redness, then hue, then
`changed`, then no-grids — which is a loop with no end, because naming features
is not the same as comparing pictures.

`kit` names four: shirt redness, shorts brightness, shorts hue, near-white
fraction. Every character breaks a different one. The brute's shirt has no red
in it at all, so its reference redness was 0 and blood scored 70-100 against a
tolerance meant for a garment. A body face down shows a fraction of the shirt it
shows standing, so two of the four move with POSE. And nothing in that list ever
measured SKIN, which is exactly how a brute's flesh drifted across a whole sheet
with six gates green.

The palette gate asks the only question that generalises: are the big colour
areas of this frame the same colours as the anchor's? Top SIX by area — the
garments and the skin. Proportions ignored, so a pose change is invisible; blood
is never in the top six, so a fresh wound cannot look like drift.

CALIBRATED BEFORE IT WAS WIRED IN, which is the discipline I skipped all day.
Frames known to be right score 0.0-8.5; the drifts we could actually see score
12.0-15.9. The threshold is 10, in the gap. Three formulations were measured and
the two that overlapped were thrown away.

And every sheet of a variant is now anchored to that variant's FIRST sheet, not
to the stage above it. Chaining let a legal hop compound into a drift nobody
authorised — the shorts walking -9 to -19 down the wound ladder was that, and so
was this.

Its first verdict on the existing brute: br_play is the character, and every
other sheet sits 15 to 48 away from it. It would have caught all of this on the
first roll.

Also in: the GRID guard from the same session — the valley-cut rescue would slice
a 2x2 sheet into four frames of a torso above someone else's boots, turning a
loud failure into a silent one. Asked per cut PIECE, because a body is vertically
continuous and a piece with a gap in it caught two of them.
