Surface-touch fieldtest of M1's (export "<sym>") + --emit=staticlib
+ scalar/effect-free gate. DESIGN.md + public examples only (no
compiler source). The M1 thesis is empirically substantiated:
- [working] Int EMA + Float leaky-integrator both first-try clean
end-to-end (author -> --emit=staticlib -> C link -> typed scalar
return; s==67 / s==1.875, exit 0). Clause-1 confirmed.
- [working] Both clause-3 rejections precise + self-correcting
(export-non-scalar-signature on IntList param;
export-has-effects on !IO). Clause-3 confirmed.
- [working] (export) orthogonality + zero-export staticlib guard
match spec.
- [friction] form_a.md 'wrap every param in own/borrow' misdirects
the headline scalar export -> body-pointing use-after-consume /
consume-while-borrowed; only bare (con Int) checks. Pre-existing
form_a.md defect M1 made acute (not introduced).
- [spec_gap] form_a.md item 1 unconditional; scalar params take no
mode (shares root with the friction).
- [spec_gap] no public emit-ir --emit=staticlib though Decision 5
makes kernel-IR readability load-bearing.
Boss verified independently via the public CLI (positive E2E builds
both archives; both rejections fire the documented codes). 0 bugs:
M1 capability + gate sound. Findings route to the roadmap as
follow-up (not M1-blocking, no debug).
