Four of six challenges conceded; the survey's two main arguments are
replaced rather than clarified.
C1 The survey concluded the sub-100k region was empty without ever
measuring it. It is not empty: tiny-skia fits at 83,956, and the
real windowed floor is fltk at 140,079 — 1.5x corrected headroom,
not 128x. "Two orders of magnitude" is withdrawn.
C1b Following that concession: wgpu+winit is 1,741,979 marginal lines
against a 250,000 target. AM-4a is incompatible with INTENT stage 2
by 7x, and has been since both were written. Raised for the
maintainer; deliberately not decided by this pass.
C2 "Marginal cost zero" was scored on an axis chosen to produce zero,
and the same relocation already flattered sdl2 and fltk in the
survey's own table. One acquisition rule now covers all three, and
it raises two candidates' cost rather than lowering the winner's.
C3 The survey contradicted itself on the second-use rule. cb-render-api
and cb-render-null are withdrawn; cb-render-html ships against the
existing Project trait, and the port waits for stage 2's second use.
C6 The candidate measurements did carry a positive control. The C1
batch did not — it copied dep-weight.py's measurement function
without its guards — and was re-measured under them before being
cited. Figures reproduced unchanged. The HTML row is relabelled
0 by construction, not by measurement.
C4/C5 become six controls binding on ADR-0007.
The recommendation stands. The reasoning that reached it does not.
