Crucial: earlier dual ref -53.7 dB was a 24-bit-misdecoded artifact; honest ref is
-10.2 dB flat. Root cause of the "dual paradox" was a metric bug + missing log-domain
LUT. Ported the documented bridge (NOTES:147) into framed_model.cpp:
xv=log10(am/res); C=G*LUT(xv)+W*warp^A; gain=(1-C)*res^rp.
Results (honest 24-bit metric): dual (fc=500 q-sweep) err <=0.7, t1kq fc-scan
err <=0.59. All empiric numbers explicitly marked. Structural A/B/gamma + combine/
FFT-conv still pending.
