Section T -- +0.0603%, final accepted figure
Extended Section S's 3-seed/9-pair campaign to 6 seeds/18 pairs (36
cells) per Captain Bob's request for a fuller campaign before moving
on. All 36 cells: 480/480 rows, 0 errors, 17,280/17,280 rows total.
Every one of 18 disabled cells reads exactly 261063 ticks -- CV=0.000%
across all 3 architectures and 6 seeds, zero exceptions. Every enabled
cell's tick count is fully determined by seed alone, identical across
all 3 architectures, zero exceptions. Pooled overhead across all 18
pairs: +0.0603% (mean +0.0603%, stdev 0.0008%, range +0.0598%-
+0.0617%) -- statistically indistinguishable from Section S's 9-pair
figure, now confirmed over double the data with 3 entirely new seeds.
This closes the ACL-TTL overhead measurement line of investigation
(Sections P, Q, R, S, T). +0.0603% is the final accepted figure.

amd64/99999/enabled, aarch64/24680/disabled added (cell 26 needed a
retry after an unexplained external SIGTERM killed the qemu process
mid-boot -- matches a previously-noted, still-unexplained SIGTERM
recurrence from a process named "claude", first seen 2026-08-18;
1-line stub log from the killed attempt kept as audit trail). All
successful cells: 480/480 rows, 0 errors.

amd64/24680/disabled, amd64/24680/enabled, aarch64/11111/enabled
added. All 480/480 rows, 0 errors. Cross-arch consistency continues
holding: seed 24680 gives 261219 on both riscv64 and amd64; seed 11111
gives 261222 on both amd64 and aarch64.

Extended from 3 to 6 seeds (added 24680/11111/99999) per Captain Bob's
request for a fuller campaign before moving on. amd64/11111/enabled,
riscv64/24680/enabled, riscv64/24680/disabled added. All 480/480 rows,
0 errors. Disabled-arm determinism (261063) holding across new seeds.

-- +0.0604% mean, architecture-independent, fully deterministic
All 18 cells (9 arch/seed pairs x disabled/enabled, zuse-authenticated
throughout) complete: 8,640/8,640 rows, 0 errors. Every disabled cell
reads exactly 261063 ticks -- CV=0.000% across all 3 architectures and
3 seeds. Every enabled cell's tick count depends only on seed, identical
across all 3 architectures for a given seed. Pooled overhead: +0.0604%
(mean +0.0604%, stdev 0.0010%, range +0.0598%-+0.0617%).
This is now the accepted ACL-TTL overhead figure for this workload,
superseding Section P's invalidated wall-clock numbers (ACL never
actually armed) and refining Section R's single-pair pilot (+0.0448%,
n=1) to a tight, fully-reproducible, architecture-independent result
across 9 independent pairs.
One tooling bug fixed mid-campaign (cells 1-3): tick-extraction regex
missed the "[Hera] " console-tagger line prefix; underlying VM runs
were unaffected, affected cells' values recovered by hand from their
serial logs before the fix.

aarch64/12345/disabled, aarch64/67890/disabled added. All 480/480
rows, 0 errors. Pattern holding: disabled delta=261063 identical
across every arch/seed so far; enabled clusters at 261219/261224
depending on seed.
