every factor interaction, and a raw-data appendix
Expanded the campaign-mechanism validation report from a condensed
6-page summary into the full depth Captain Bob asked for: analyze all 9
cells as a conglomerate Latin square, then dive into each cell's own
data, then cover every within-ISA and cross-factor interaction
explicitly rather than averaging it away.
Report structure (127 pages, compiled clean, no undefined references):
- Front matter: context, methodology, the SWAP-MTX bug narrative
(console-interleaving fix + the Fisher-Yates correctness bug and its
fix, both already committed separately)
- Layer 1: aggregate 3x3 Latin square (heatmap, invariant-metrics table)
- Per-Cell Deep Dive (9 sections): cfg-level distribution, summary
table, and a rep-order execution-trajectory chart per cell -- the
trajectory charts are what actually visualize the order-dependence
finding rather than just stating it
- Per-ISA Deep Dive (3 sections): within-architecture seed comparison
(violin plots, Kruskal-Wallis, per-factor main effects)
- Factor Interactions (6 sections, every pairwise combination of the 4
L8 binary factors): both infer_dec_q and early_exit interaction plots
faceted by architecture, plus the three-way
factor x factor x architecture significance test
- Per-Factor Response (4 sections): linear response by architecture,
with an explicit note that a true quadratic term isn't identifiable
from this 2-level factorial design
- Appendix: full run_id-ordered raw data, all 4,320 rows across all 9
cells, as the primary-source backing for every statistic above
Generated programmatically (analyse_stadium_relaunch_fixed.R for the
aggregate layer, generate_stadium_deepdive.R for the per-cell/per-ISA/
interaction/appendix layers) rather than hand-authored, since content at
this scale needs to be data-driven to stay honest.
Also includes analyse_stadium_relaunch.R, the earlier script built
against the pre-fix (buggy-shuffle) dataset -- superseded but kept for
the record, matching how the underlying data commits were handled.

Found while building the analysis report for the ACL-RWT relaunch
campaign: cfg=0 was missing from run coverage for 2 of 3 seeds, reproduced
identically across all three architectures. Root-caused rather than
worked around, per Captain Bob's "this is worrisome."
SWAP-MTX (capsules/doe.4th Block 2104) never actually swapped two
RUN-MATRIX cells -- it performed a lossy one-way copy (second MATRIX!
call mis-targeted mat[i] again instead of mat[j]). Confirmed by direct
empirical test on the hosted build: INIT-MATRIX gives mat[0]=0, mat[5]=5;
after 0 5 SWAP-MTX, mat[0]=0 (unchanged, should be 5) and mat[5]=0
(correct), with the original value 5 permanently destroyed. Every
Fisher-Yates shuffle this mechanism has ever run silently duplicated some
values and dropped others -- not a true permutation. Not new, not
introduced by item 4.6/Stadium work; predates this session.
Fixed with explicit temp variables (SW-I/SW-J/SW-VI/SW-VJ), trivially
verifiable by inspection over clever stack juggling. Verified on the
hosted build for all three seeds used by the relaunch campaign: each now
produces all 16 cfg values exactly 30 times, run_id 0-479 fully distinct.
Three-arch QEMU acceptance clean: 1012/0/0 POST on all three, identical
dict_hash (expected -- doe.4th isn't C-registered or auto-loaded at
boot). BLOCK_MAP.md correctly shows only doe.4th's own hash changed.
Also includes the R analysis/chart pipeline (analyse_stadium_relaunch.R)
built for the relaunch campaign report, and the three acceptance boot
logs.
Retroactive caveat: the relaunch campaign's own run-matrix coverage
(experiments/bare_metal/runs/acl-rwt-20260820/) is not a valid uniform
permutation, having run against the buggy shuffle. Whether to re-run it
against the fix is a separate call, not made here.
