The bisect settled it. The difference survives every stage removal down to
"corridors + carve ONLY", which is character-for-character transcribed code, so
it is not in anything the decomposition added.
Cause, read out of the engine rather than assumed (VCToolChain.cs):
case FPSemanticsMode.Default: // Default is imprecise FP semantics.
case FPSemanticsMode.Imprecise: Arguments.Add("/fp:fast"); break;
with UBT's own doc: "the compiler is allowed to transform math expressions in
ways that might result in differently rounded results". Identical source in two
translation units may reassociate differently, worth ~1 ULP. It shows up on
exactly the ~2% of samples inside the SDF blend shell, where Blend - Sdf
catastrophically cancels; outside it Carve is exactly 0 or 1 and both agree.
So MazeEquivalence now grades what it can actually assert:
- hard fail : any isosurface crossing (geometry moves)
- info : differences at ULP scale (the unavoidable floor)
- warn : anything larger, which IS port drift, and runs the bisect
A test that warns on every port would get ignored by the port that matters.
Recorded in OPSTACK-PLAN 2.6, and as AUDIT C9 for the part that outlives this
refactor: ARCHITECTURE 9.1's "every peer regenerates identically" holds only
between bit-identical binaries under /fp:fast. Fine for one build on one
platform; a real desync source for a Linux server plus Windows clients both
regenerating authoritative geometry. The FPSemantics::Precise knob exists but
must not be turned speculatively -- it blocks the vectorisation T2.a was chasing,
on the hot loop, for an unmeasured cost.
