Duration mismatch
V16's 0.165px is a 4h run, not yet duration-matched to V11/V14's 28–30h settled runs — treat as early recovery evidence, not a final ranking. The RMS Comparison finding names a duration-matched (~28–30h) new-AO run as the natural next test.
Open Questions
Settle-gate bottleneck
Confirmed independent of the fan fault — still gates 206/215 frames on V16.
AO delivery gap
Narrowed from −4.9px (V15) to −0.123px (V16).
TEC fan failure
Fixed and confirmed before the V16 run.
RMS win, new vs old AO
Not yet demonstrated — needs a duration-matched long run.
