docs: suite green after the verbosity fix; FIELD digest proves nothing moved

14/14 pass with no StrateManager warnings. Every reported number is identical
to the pre-change run, including the CrossPlatform FIELD digest
(0xF62F3D355B1C0BDB) -- a bit-for-bit hash over 115,000 samples of the whole
field.

That digest is the strongest evidence available: the six-box LRU, the
DensityCacheOwnerId key, the bail re-attribution and the scope fix did not move
a single voxel between them. Four changes to caching, keying and diagnostics,
and the world is byte-for-byte identical -- exactly the contract each claimed,
now tested rather than asserted.

Still unmeasured: the performance benefit of those caching changes. "Quite a
fraction of what it used to be" is a real observation, not a same-seed/
same-route number.

Still open: read `Operator-stack opt-in` in the GAME log. That line is the
ground truth for T1.d and supersedes both the bail-counter inference and the
recorded belief that the assets have the switch on.
