Subject: [PATCH] 71 more key commands, and the quest windows wear the
 reference's names
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- the binding registry goes 130 → 201 of the client's 228 live commands: a coverage gate makes registered ∪ recorded-absent exactly the 1.12 surface, each absence naming the Lua globals whose arrival refutes it — which is how 37 rows whose mechanism had already landed came home (the keyring, the pet book, the raid tab, the six action-bar pages, both vertical multibars) — and then four mechanisms bring 71 more: the five camera views with the reference's default table and its sixteen camera CVars read out of the binary (NextView/PrevView do NOT wrap), self-cast riding UseAction's third argument with autoSelfCast a real CVar at last, the friendly target cone / assist / last-hostile as one cycler with a side (the two sides use different deadness tests on purpose, and assist neither requires an assistable target nor swings), and REPLY2 — reply to the last person you told; the friendly cone also stops borrowing the enemy side's in-combat score bonus, which would have shoved a healer targeting you to the head of every cycle
- the key names close their gaps: NUMPADEQUALS, F13-F24 and BUTTON6+ were keys the binding window listed and the file saved that the dispatcher could never press — named both ways now, with the namer and the codec structurally unable to disagree again; platform= becomes the OS gate it really is (off a Mac build the iTunes-remote category never even exists), and the Mac 1.12 slice settles that its F13 IS print-screen while F14/F15 map to UNKNOWN on purpose and stay unbindable; and the last-enemy stamp gains the four conjuncts it shipped without — you resolve, are not dead, not a ghost, not mounted, and the new target is alive-or-feigning — so TargetLastEnemy can no longer land somewhere the real client's never would
- the quest windows wear the reference's names: ~40 of the quest window's globals were ours (the reference's name usually sitting in the comment beside them), its two six-item reward pools merge into the reference's single ten-item run with the update function ported line-for-line, the four panels and the quest log take REAL scroll frames (the thumb drags now), the gossip window gets its greeting panel, the two mail panes' inert painted-at-rest scrollbars become real ones, the Skills detail pane nests as the reference has it, and nine private constants take their real names; the one that broke a feature detect: our QuestLogCount — a name 1.12 doesn't publish — made pfUI conclude it was running on TBC and die in that branch
- an EditBox is born with its constructor's five regions (the text, three selection quads and the caret), so GetRegions answers the reference's own count and authored regions start at index 6 — and a bare <NormalTexture/> now builds a live blank texture, since the element is what creates the region, not its file=; OpacityFrame lands, its first customer having arrived; and the equip / auto-equip / use bind confirms complete the soulbind arc — three different predicates with no quality leg (borrowing the loot arm's would have silenced the confirm on every white bind-on-equip item), Accept re-issuing the original action with the reference's suppress flag because 1.12 ships no confirm packet, and the soulstone use going through the same gate

+                    The greeting + row list live inside a REAL ScrollFrame — the reference's own structure

+                    on the grounds that "our short greeting needs no scrolling". A gossip menu of wrapped
+                    roleplay options is exactly the case that breaks: once each row grew to its text
+                    (BenillaGossipRow_Resize), four long options ran off the parchment and out of the
+                    window (the director's second screenshot). The ref's answer is this scroll frame, and
+                    it is now ours: 300x334 at the window's TOPLEFT +(23,-81) (ref l.223-233) over a child
+                    the same size (ref l.235-239), the greeting at the child's +(10,-10) (ref l.241-252),
+                    and the row chain hanging off the greeting exactly as before (ref l.256-269).
+
+                    Content taller than the frame is CLIPPED to it and panned (engine mechanism, decision
+                    0112) instead of overflowing; BenillaGossipFrame_SizeScrollChild sizes the child to the
+                    measured content each repaint, which re-ranges the bar through OnScrollRangeChanged.
+                    The ref grows its child with a 15px GossipSpacerFrame under the last row (ref l.421-432,
+                    re-anchored per update by GossipFrame.lua l.39-44); ours is the shared kit's

         ref's own real-client compositing (SkillFrame is a nested child there too, relying on the
         same cutout rather than redrawing the portrait itself).
 
-        FLAT layout (TrainerFrame.xml/TradeSkillFrame.xml's own house constraint): this window has no
-        DETAIL FontStrings needing a nested child Frame in the first place — the minimal detail pane
-        (below) is a single StatusBar instance whose own name/rank FontStrings live on ITS OWN Layers
-        (a StatusBar, like a Button, renders its own Layers fine — only a plain child `<Frame>` loses
-        them), the exact `BenillaTradeSkillRankFrame` shape TradeSkillFrame.xml already proved.
+        THE DETAIL PANE NESTS, as the ref's does. This file used to carry the FLAT-layout claim —
+        "only a plain child `<Frame>` loses [its Layers]" — quoted from TrainerFrame.xml. That claim
+        is FALSE and was retracted in decision 1517, which corrected TrainerFrame/TradeSkillFrame/
+        CraftFrame and missed this file: a fourth restatement, still asserting the constraint five
+        weeks after it was disproved. A runtime-shown child `<Frame>` renders its own `<Layers>`
+        FontStrings in this engine, and the ref's `SkillDetailScrollFrame` +
+        `SkillDetailScrollChildFrame` are therefore built here verbatim (below).
+        1517 §2 says a retracted reason is not by itself cause to move approved geometry — so the
+        mover here is not the retraction, it is DEMAND: pfUI's `skins/blizzard/character.lua` l.299-320
+        indexes `SkillDetailScrollFrameScrollBar`, `SkillDetailScrollChildFrame`, `SkillDetailCostText`
+        and `SkillDetailStatusBarUnlearnButton` by name, and its own skin then hides the scroll child
+        and reparents the three detail regions onto the scroll frame — i.e. it flattens the pane
+        ITSELF, which it can only do if the pane is nested to begin with. The pane also could not
+        keep its old size inside the ref's 296-wide viewport: the old detail bar reused the 271-wide
+        LIST-ROW template, whose 281-wide Border put the abandon button at x 312..344 against a
+        viewport ending at 318 — 26 of its 32 px clipped. So the detail bar is now the ref's OWN
+        declaration (211×15, Border 220×32, centred under the list) rather than a borrowed list row,
+        which is both what fits and what the real client draws. LOOK CHANGE, called out for the
+        director: the detail bar narrows and centres, and the ref's two `UI-ClassTrainer-ScrollBar`
+        trough textures now flank the pane's right edge (the ref draws them unconditionally, bar or
+        no bar). Reverting is one anchor + one Size.
 
         v1 DEVIATIONS (each re-cited at its own site below):
-          1. THE DETAIL PANE IS MINIMAL-PLUS-DESCRIPTION-PLUS-ABANDON: the selected skill's rank
-             StatusBar + name + the DESCRIPTION BODY (`SkillDetailDescriptionText` — ref
-             `SkillDetailDescriptionText`/`SKILL_DESCRIPTION`, real since `GetSkillLineInfo`'s 13th
-             return carries `SkillLine.dbc` col 12) + the ABANDON BUTTON
-             (`SkillDetailUnlearnButton` → the `UNLEARN_SKILL` confirm → `AbandonSkill` →
+          1. THE DETAIL PANE OMITS THE TRAINING-POINT SPEND ROW, and nothing else. Its structure
+             (`SkillDetailScrollFrame` → `SkillDetailScrollChildFrame` → `SkillDetailCostText` +
+             `SkillDetailDescriptionText` + `SkillDetailStatusBar` → `$parentUnlearnButton`) is the
+             ref's, verbatim. What stays OUT is the ref's `$parentLeftArrow`/`$parentRightArrow`/
+             `$parentLearnSkillButton` trio and the `AddSkillUp`/`RemoveSkillUp`/`BuySkillTier`
+             calls behind them — driven by `stepCost`/`rankCost`/`numTempPoints`, which
+             `GetSkillLineInfo` always reports nil/0 (0437's own named out-of-scope: 1.12 training
+             points are dead data).
+             `SkillDetailCostText` IS built, because the ref's own no-cost path is a real path, not
+             a stub: ref `SkillFrame.lua` l.361 `SkillDetailCostText:Hide()` is the branch a live
+             1.12 server always lands on, and `BenillaSkillFrame_UpdateDetail` takes exactly that
+             branch every time. An empty hidden FontString here is the reference's own behaviour,
+             not a name published to satisfy a lookup (1189/1203).
+             The ABANDON BUTTON is real: `SkillDetailStatusBarUnlearnButton` (the ref's
+             `$parentUnlearnButton`) → the `UNLEARN_SKILL` confirm → `AbandonSkill` →
              `CMSG_UNLEARN_SKILL`; the isAbandonable predicate is `SkillRaceClassInfo.flags & 0x20`
-             — the server's own gate, real 5875 data: primary professions only). STILL OMITTED:
-             the training-point spend row (the ref's `LeftArrow`/`RightArrow`/`LearnSkillButton`/
-             `SkillDetailCostText`, all driven by `stepCost`/`rankCost`, which `GetSkillLineInfo`
-             always reports nil/0 — 0437's own named out-of-scope: 1.12 training points are dead
-             data).
+             — the server's own gate, real 5875 data: primary professions only. It used to be
+             published as `SkillDetailUnlearnButton`, a name the reference does not have, while the
+             comment directly above it cited `$parentUnlearnButton` correctly — the fifth instance
+             this session of right-behaviour-under-a-private-name (1189).
           2. NO SORT CHECKBOX (ref l.215-241's own XML-commented-out "Replace once code is ready..."
              `SkillSortButton`): the ref itself ships this dead/commented, so there is nothing to
              transcribe (TradeSkillFrame.xml's own "ref's own dead code is dropped" precedent).

+//! The **five camera views** — `SetView` / `SaveView` / `ResetView` / `NextView` / `PrevView`, and
+//! `FlipCameraYaw`. The engine half of [`benilla_ui::script::CameraViewRequest`]; the Lua half (and
+//! the argument ABI) is `benilla-ui`'s `script::camera_view`.
+//!
+//! [`super::camera_saved`]'s neighbour, and its complement: that file remembers the **one live
+//! pose** per character; this one remembers the **five named poses** the player can jump between.
+//! The reference splits them exactly the same way and for the same reason — one is where you left
+//! the camera, the other is where you decided it should be able to go.
+//!
+//! # The five views, byte-real
+//!
+//! The reference's camera ctor reads the `cameraView` CVar and indexes a five-row table of default
+//! *strings* at `0x84f488` (stride 12, three `const char*` per row — distance, pitch, yaw), with
+//! the row names at `0x84f848`. Read straight out of `WoW.exe` 5875 (decision 1138 §2 records the
+//! first two columns; the third is dumped here for the first time):
+//!
+//! | `SetView` arg | internal | name | distance | pitch | yaw |
+//! |---|---|---|---|---|---|
+//! | 1 | 0 | `FIRST_PERSON`   | `0.0`   | `0.0`  | `0.0` |
+//! | 2 | 1 | `THIRD_PERSON_A` | `5.55`  | `10.0` | `0.0` |
+//! | 3 | 2 | `THIRD_PERSON_B` | `5.55`  | `20.0` | `0.0` |
+//! | 4 | 3 | `THIRD_PERSON_C` | `13.88` | `30.0` | `0.0` |
+//! | 5 | 4 | `THIRD_PERSON_D` | `13.88` | `10.0` | `0.0` |
+//!
+//! The pitch column is **degrees, positive = looking DOWN** — the reference's own convention, which
+//! is the opposite of [`FlyCam::pitch`]'s. Decision 1138 is the whole story; the conversion is
+//! [`super::camera_saved::pitch_from_file`] and this module does not grow a second one.
+//!
+//! View 1 is `distance 0.0`, and that is **reachable, not a rounding of "very close"**:
+//! [`CAM_DIST_MIN`] is `0.0`, the eye sits on the framing pivot (inside the head) and the avatar
+//! fades out through [`benilla_world::model_fade::self_model_fade_alpha`]. `SetView(1)` is real
+//! first person, not a clamp to some near stop.
+//!
+//! # Persistence — the reference's own fifteen CVars
+//!
+//! 1138 §2 recorded that the saved views survive a restart as archived `config.wtf` CVars and left
+//! the name→view mapping unpinned. It is pinned now, at `0x50b9b0`'s 5x3 registration loop, and the
+//! names are the reference's:
+//!
+//! ```text
+//! 50b9c1  SStrCopy(buf, 0x84fdc0)              ; "camera"
+//! 50b9d3  SStrCat (buf, [esi+0x84f468])        ; "Distance" | "Pitch" | "Yaw"   (inner, esi 0..12)
+//! 50b9e1  SStrCat (buf, [ebx])                 ; ""  | "A" | "B" | "C" | "D"    (outer, per view)
+//! 50b9ec  default = [esi + edi + 0x84f488]     ; the SAME table as the ctor's, 12·view + 4·field
+//! 50ba07  record  -> [esi + edi + 0xbe0f7c]
+//! ```
+//!
+//! → `cameraDistance`/`cameraPitch`/`cameraYaw` for view 0, and `…A`/`…B`/`…C`/`…D` for views 1–4;
+//! the active view is `cameraView` (`0x84fdc8`, registrar default `"1"` — an *internal* index, so
+//! the shipped view is `THIRD_PERSON_A`, i.e. Lua `SetView(2)`). Verified by reading the tables out
+//! of the binary, not inferred from the loop shape. benilla registers exactly those sixteen names
+//! with exactly those defaults ([`crate::cvars::REGISTERED`], welded by test below) — 0954's CVar
+//! store *is* our persistence, so being faithful here costs nothing and buys a `config.toml` a
+//! player can read against a real `config.wtf`.
+//!
+//! **No host knob** — the `lastCharacterIndex`/`checkAddonVersion` posture in [`crate::cvars`]:
+//! [`CameraViews`] is the authority, seeded once from the persisted values at startup and writing
+//! every change back through `set_cvar_engine` (the minimap-zoom pattern, so the write dirties
+//! `config.toml`). A live `SetCVar("cameraPitchB", …)` therefore does *not* reach the in-memory
+//! slot — which is the reference's behaviour too: `0x50fb80` loads the slot array from the CVar
+//! records at camera construction and nothing re-reads them afterwards.
+//!
+//! # Three things the reference does that a reader will expect it not to
+//!
+//! - **`SaveView(1)` and `ResetView(1)` work.** All three indexed entry points take `1..=5`
+//!   (`0x50b5d2`/`0x50b626`/`0x50b666`: `test eax,eax; jle` then `cmp eax,5; jg`), and `0x50fa30`
+//!   — SaveView's body — has no view-0 gate. 1.12 ships no `SAVEVIEW1`/`RESETVIEW1` *binding*,
+//!   which is a `Bindings.xml` decision; a macro reaches what no key can.
+//! - **`NextView`/`PrevView` do not wrap.** `0x50faa0` is `eax = view + 1; cmp eax,5; jge <ret>`,
+//!   `0x50fac0` is `test eax,eax; jle <ret>; dec eax`. Holding `END` walks 1→2→3→4→5 and stops.
+//! - **The saved yaw is an OFFSET from the subject's facing, not a world angle.** The reference's
+//!   yaw channel `cam+0xf0` is relative while `cam+0xa4 == 0` and the final view resolver re-adds
+//!   the followed unit's facing every frame (`0x50f7f2`); `0x512e90` adds it explicitly on the
+//!   absolute-mode leg (`0x512fff`). Ours stores `wrap_pi(cam.yaw − face_yaw)` for the same reason.
+//!
+//! # The active view is remembered, and not applied at startup
+//!
+//! [`load_saved_views`] seeds [`CameraViews`] and stops — it never calls [`apply`]. So a
+//! `cameraView` of `2` means "`NextView` steps from there", not "open the camera at view 2"; the
+//! pose you actually get is the one [`super::camera_saved`] restores, which is where you left the
+//! camera. That is not a divergence in *effect*: the reference builds its camera from
+//! `cameraView`'s row at construction and then `camera-settings.txt`'s reader lands distance and
+//! pitch over the top of it at UI load (1138), so the remembered pose wins there too. It is stated
+//! because the two modules are neighbours and a reader will otherwise expect them to fight.
+//!
+//! # Two deliberate divergences, both stated
+//!
+//! - **`ResetView` writes the CVars back to their defaults; the reference does not.** `0x50fae0`
+//!   re-parses the default strings into the slot array and re-applies the view, and touches no
+//!   CVar — so in the real client a reset comes *back* at the next launch, out of the value
+//!   `SaveView` archived. Here the CVar store is the persistence (0954), so a reset that does not
+//!   persist is a bug rather than a quirk worth aping; writing the default string verbatim also
+//!   makes [`crate::cvars`]'s diff-shaped file drop the key entirely.
+//! - **`SetView` glides the distance and snaps pitch and yaw.** The reference arms all three of its
+//!   smooth channels (`0x513189`/`0x5131a3`/`0x5131b8`, on `cameraViewBlendStyle`'s default `1`).
+//!   benilla's rig has exactly one such channel — the wheel-zoom glide at `cameraDistanceMoveSpeed`
+//!   — and setting `target_distance` rides it for free; there is no pitch or yaw channel to arm, so
+//!   those land immediately. A second and a third channel is a real piece of work and a *look*
+//!   call; it is named here rather than half-built.

+//! `USE_BIND` (decision 1750). The loot arm's siblings, and NOT built the same way, because the
+//! reference does not build them the same way either.
+//!
+//! ## The three predicates are three different predicates
+//!
+//! VERIFIED at the 1.12.1 bytes (wow-re `system/object-layer/scratch/bind-confirm-law.md`), one
+//! `item_template + 0x194` compare per arm and **no `+0x1c` (quality) read in any of the three**:
+//!
+//! | arm | event | fires from | predicate | site |
+//! |---|---|---|---|---|
+//! | loot (decision 1744) | `LOOT_BIND_CONFIRM` 287 | `0x4c2790` | `bonding == 1` **and** `quality >= 2` | `4c28f2`/`4c28fb` |
+//! | equip | `EQUIP_BIND_CONFIRM` 288 | `0x5e0c40` `SwapItem` | `bonding == 2` | `5e0e54` |
+//! | auto-equip | `AUTOEQUIP_BIND_CONFIRM` 289 | `0x5e1480` `AutoEquipCursorItem` | `bonding == 2` | `5e163b` |
+//! | use | `USE_BIND_CONFIRM` 290 | `0x5d8d00` `CGItem::Use` | `bonding == 3` | `5d91d6` |
+//!
+//! Carrying the loot arm's `quality >= 2` across would have been wrong twice over: it would have
+//! silenced the confirm on a white BoE, and it would have asked about the wrong `bonding` value
+//! entirely. (This was benilla's working assumption until the RE refuted it; that is why the table
+//! is here and not a sentence.)
+//!
+//! ## The other conjuncts, and where benilla already had them
+//!
+//! The equip arms' full set is: container and item resolve · the item is **not already soulbound**
+//! · the call is not itself a suppressed re-issue · the item template is **cached** · `bonding == 2`
+//! · the player **can equip it**. Both of the interesting ones were already in this codebase, byte-
+//! derived for other reasons and reused here rather than re-written:
+//!
+//! - *not already soulbound* is [`crate::items::already_bound`] — literally `0x5da2c0`, built for
+//!   the enchant cursor's own bind question (decision 0928) and the tooltip's Soulbound override
+//!   (B310/1562). The reference calls the same function from all three places.
+//! - *can equip it* is `0x5ea930`, [`benilla_ui::script::UiScript::item_usable`] — built for the
+//!   merchant's red rows (decision 0299).
+//!
+//! ## Accept is a re-issue, not a confirm packet
+//!
+//! There is no `CMSG_CONFIRM_*` in 1.12. `EquipPendingItem(index)` re-runs the *original action*

+//! and the accept path calls the very same sender the click did — `suppress` threaded through as a
+//! real parameter, exactly as `0x5e0c40`/`0x5e1480` take it. `CancelPendingEquip(index)` sends
+//! nothing and only drops the record.
+//!
+//! **A superseded record is CANCELLED, not overwritten** — the entries are `exclusive = 1`, so
+//! `StaticPopup_Show` hides the standing dialog and runs its `OnHide`, which is
+//! `CancelPendingEquip(slot)`. That is why both `OnCancel` and `OnHide` name it, and why this store
+//! is an index-addressed array of optional records rather than a single cell: two questions can be
+//! live in principle, and the second one's arrival is what retires the first.
+//!
+//! ## The index space is the reference's own
+//!
+//! `arg1` is a **0-based index into the pending array**, not a slot (wow-re corrected benilla's
+//! assumption here). It is opaque on both sides — the event hands it out, `dialog.data` carries it,
+//! and the two verbs hand it straight back — so unlike the loot arm's row number (1744, translated
+//! into benilla's display space) there is nothing to gain by re-basing it, and it is kept as-is.

+//! The **item soulbind confirmations** other than the loot one — the Era API surface behind
+//! `EQUIP_BIND` / `AUTOEQUIP_BIND` / `USE_BIND` (decision 1750). Three globals, no snapshot: the
+//! question arrives as an event and the answer goes straight back out, exactly like
+//! [`super::binder`] and [`super::duel`].
+//!
+//! ## What the three verbs mean, at the 1.12 bytes
+//!
+//! `EquipPendingItem(index)` `0x4898f0` and `CancelPendingEquip(index)` `0x489960` both delegate to
+//! `0x5e1be0(index, accept)`. **`index` is not a slot** — it is a 0-based index into the client's
+//! own growable pending-equip array (capacity `0xc4c290`, count `0xc4c294`, base `0xc4c298`, stride
+//! `0x20`), which is also what `EQUIP_BIND_CONFIRM`'s and `AUTOEQUIP_BIND_CONFIRM`'s `arg1` carries.
+//! `UIParent.lua:324-339` hangs it on `dialog.data` and the entries hand it straight back, so the
+//! number is opaque on both sides — which is why benilla keeps the reference's index space here
+//! instead of translating it the way the loot arm's row number is translated (1744).
+//!
+//! **Accept is a re-issue of the original action with a suppress flag, not a confirm packet** —
+//! there is no `CMSG_CONFIRM_*` in 1.12. Cancel sends nothing at all; it only releases the item
+//! locks the deferred action took (`UnlockItem 0x495420`).
+//!
+//! `ConfirmBindOnUse()` `0x48d770` is the use arm's answer and takes **no** argument, because that
+//! arm's pending state is not the array: it is two globals the fire site stamps (the item guid at
+//! `0xc4c240`, the target guid at `0xc4c1d0`), and the accept is `CGItem::Use(&target, suppress=1)`.
+//! `USE_BIND_CONFIRM` carries no arguments either, and the reference ships **no** cancel binding for
+//! it — declining simply drops the question.
+//!
+//! All three decisions are **client-local**: the client reads the cached item template's `bonding`
+//! and defers its own send. No packet raises any of them (VERIFIED, wow-re
+//! `system/object-layer/scratch/bind-confirm-law.md`).
+//!
+//! The app owns the pending records, so this module holds only the intents.

+//! The **five camera views** — `SetView` / `SaveView` / `ResetView` / `NextView` / `PrevView`,
+//! plus `FlipCameraYaw`: the outbound half of the reference's `UIUtil\Camera.cpp` Lua surface.
+//!
+//! Six globals, no state — [`super::follow`]'s shape exactly. Nothing here reads the camera: every
+//! one of these is an **engine action** over state this VM does not hold (the orbit arm, the pitch,
+//! the character's facing, the zoom ceiling), so each call queues a [`CameraViewRequest`] the app
+//! drains ([`super::UiScript::take_camera_view_requests`]) and applies to the rig
+//! (`benilla_app::player::camera_view`). The alternative — reaching into the ECS from inside the
+//! VM — is the thing decision 0068 §3 exists to forbid.
+//!
+//! **Where they come from.** The reference registers them in one table, `0x84f7a0` (`{const char*
+//! name; handler}` pairs, dumped from `WoW.exe` 5875): rows 15…20 are `SetView 0x50b5b0`,
+//! `SaveView 0x50b600`, `ResetView 0x50b640`, `NextView 0x50b680`, `PrevView 0x50b690`,
+//! `FlipCameraYaw 0x50b6a0`. Sixteen 1.12 binding commands have one of these as their whole body
+//! (`SETVIEW1`…`5`, `SAVEVIEW2`…`5`, `RESETVIEW2`…`5`, `NEXTVIEW`, `PREVVIEW`, `FLIPCAMERAYAW`).
+//!
+//! ## The argument ABI is a third shape, and it is neither of [`super::binding_abi`]'s two
+//!
+//! The four indexed entry points share one prologue, byte-identical across `0x50b5b0` /
+//! `0x50b600` / `0x50b640`:
+//!
+//! ```text
+//! 50b5b8  call 0x6f34d0          ; is-number(L, 1)  — a number, or a coercible string
+//! 50b5bf  je   <exit>            ; NOT a number -> xor eax,eax ; ret   (silent, zero Lua values)
+//! 50b5c8  call 0x6f3620          ; tonumber(L, 1)
+//! 50b5cd  call 0x40a2b0          ; double -> int32, truncating toward zero
+//! 50b5d4  jle  <exit>            ; n <= 0  -> silent
+//! 50b5d9  jg   <exit>            ; n >  5  -> silent
+//! 50b5e5  dec  eax               ; Lua 1..5  ->  internal view 0..4
+//! ```
+//!
+//! So the failure edge **returns without raising** — it never reaches `luaL_error 0x6f4940`, which
+//! is the discriminator [`super::binding_abi`]'s header sets out. A macro doing `SetView(0)`,
+//! `SetView(9)`, `SetView("left")` or `SetView()` is a silent no-op in the real client, and is one
+//! here. That rules out `binding_abi::number_arg` (shape A — raises) and makes
+//! `binding_abi::coerced_number` (shape C — no guard, defaults to `0.0`) merely *accidentally*
+//! right, so the guard is written out rather than borrowed.
+//!
+//! `FlipCameraYaw` takes the same is-number guard and then the raw float — `0x6f3620` straight to
+//! `fstp [ebp-4]`, with no `0x40a2b0` — so its argument is **not** truncated to an integer.
+//!
+//! ## Two verified facts that a reader will expect to be otherwise
+//!
+//! - **The range is 1…5 for all three of Set/Save/Reset.** `SaveView(1)` and `ResetView(1)` are
+//!   accepted by the engine and act on `FIRST_PERSON`; `0x50fa30` (SaveView's body) has no view-0
+//!   gate at all. 1.12 ships no `SAVEVIEW1`/`RESETVIEW1` *binding*, which is a `Bindings.xml`
+//!   decision, not an engine one — a macro reaches what the keybinding cannot.
+//! - **`NextView`/`PrevView` do not wrap.** `0x50faa0` is `eax = view + 1; cmp eax,5; jge <ret>`
+//!   and `0x50fac0` is `test eax,eax; jle <ret>; dec eax` — each is a hard stop at its end of the
+//!   range, so holding `END` walks 1→2→3→4→5 and stays there. The app enforces it (this side only
+//!   queues the verb).
