SD-298

[not-experiment] Calibration run is NOT an experiment, NOT an A/B test. Confounds acknowledged always. Pre-registration non-negotiable. Analyst audit: “18 out of 18 cold context” claim doesn’t survive — only 1/18 slopodar entries is directly about cold context, 4 partially. Captain’s verbatim: “That is not a research question. That is an operator checking their own instrument.”
