From 9a24d34347fd5ff1aca7afa6ca5567d39f5e961c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yogthos Date: Mon, 8 Jun 2026 12:54:56 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Phase 5 done: representation decision (Option B), gate results MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Representation decision: Option B (hybrid). Option A blast-radius measured — always-lazy map breaks lazy-infinite (0/21) and crashes conformance completely. Hybrid (lazy over lazy input, eager over concrete) is the only viable approach with current lazy-seq machinery.
