Every comparator component that decides output now dies under mutation in both
runtimes, and the new fixtures are killers rather than coincidences. The
headline claim is two-sided: each runtime serializes and asserts
independently, and every C# vector fails when a single hex digit of its
expected constant is flipped.
Soul found one real hole. The all-absent Edge vector exists only in Rust,
because the all-absent header is covered incidentally by the envelope and the
edge is not. A C# encoder that resumed omitting a null payload would pass
everything. Five lines closes it, so it closes before the merge rather than
after: shipping over a known asymmetry with a note promising to return is the
thing this cut exists to prevent.
Two misses are mine. R-AT asserted to.schemaId dies alone, which Hands never
claimed and which is not true; it is now construct a killer or delete the
component, because a line no input can distinguish still has to be reasoned
about. And I deleted the false equivalence argument where batch 6 restated it
while leaving the original standing as a live instruction.
