paper-v2.2

paper-v2.2 — wording-consistency patch of paper-v2.1

Three wording fixes only. paper-v2.2 does not change any experiment,
raw trial, frozen analysis, numerical result, or pre-registered rule. The
canonical raw data and every frozen scientific output in this release are
byte-identical to paper-v2.0 and paper-v2.1.

What changed

1. Anonymous-supplementary consistency (report only). The anonymous
   TMLR supplementary ZIP does not retain any canonical repository
   commit SHA — execution_fingerprint.source_commit_sha in the anon
   reports/**/trials.jsonl derivative copies is
   [redacted-for-double-blind], verified by extraction. The stale
   statement in an earlier packaging report that the anon traces are
   "byte-exact and retain source_commit_sha" was incorrect and is
   withdrawn; ANON_README.md (correct) already describes the traces as
   double-blind derivative copies.
2. Phase 8 provider wording. "executed at different times against
   different provider snapshots" → "executed in different windows against
   provider endpoints whose underlying snapshot identity was not pinned"
   (Section 5.3 and Limitations (iii-a)). Snapshot IDs were not pinned, so
   literal snapshot difference is not asserted. The existing limitation
   ("Without provider snapshot pinning, sampling variability,
   scenario-distribution differences, and possible provider-endpoint
   drift cannot be separated") is unchanged; no behavioural/provider
   drift is claimed.
3. Sample-size / headroom wording. "increasing the per-model sample
   more than tenfold (Phase 9) did not create headroom" / "Adding samples
   does not create headroom … Phase 9 increased the per-model sample more
   than tenfold" → "Additional samples can improve resolution around a
   baseline but cannot, by themselves, create directional headroom if the
   underlying operating regime is saturated" plus, for the empirical
   Phase 9 description, "the larger Phase 9 follow-up resolved F3 to a
   high-egress regime rather than revealing an intermediate one." The
   Phase 8 -> Phase 9 difference is no longer described as attributable to
   sample size alone.
