Consolidate numerical research and preserve a reproducible handoff

Document the baseline, hypotheses, measured results, failed approaches,
current policy defaults, and remaining rotating n=3 and virial limitations.
Include the authoritative LaTeX report, Pandoc-generated Markdown, compiled
PDF, source provenance, branch decisions, and consolidation validation.

Organize raw results and miscellaneous artifacts under working/ without
deleting them; version the directory guide, relocation hashes, archive
verifier, and report build/conversion checks. Keep build caches at their
original paths and clearly distinguish retained binaries from the validated
research build. Preserve experimental policies without promoting failed
trials to defaults.
