- water and lava keep time in the shader: the 24 Hz CPU tick that re-uploaded every liquid material is gone, −0.28 ms at the Stormwind gates, and lava scrolls smoothly instead of stepping
- static transform tracking is pinned on — the adaptive check spent two full scans a frame to say yes in a world where movers are 1–3% of the rows
- WOW_MEGA_STATIC merges static geometry per material and 133-yard cell — an experiment lever, priced at −1.15 ms CPU for +0.3 ms GPU at the Stormwind gates
- WOW_GPU_MS times the whole frame on the GPU and reads 2.2 ms against 17.4 CPU at the Stormwind gates: the frame is CPU-bound, so the work ahead is on the CPU side

- the justify verbs had been written three times and drifted three ways; one implementation now serves the region, font-object and message-frame tables, and a cleared axis paints centre, as the client's draw path really does
- MessageFrame and ScrollingMessageFrame gain the ten-verb font block they were missing entirely, so font calls on message frames stop raising
- EnableKeyboard and IsKeyboardEnabled land as real Frame methods — eight addons were dying on their absence
- the harness's METHODS ranking states its own limits instead of reading as a build queue

- Lua 5.0's generic-for and nested long strings are restored in a forked VM — 60 corpus addons stopped dying on one deleted opcode
- a day of demand-driven carving takes the 218-addon corpus from 24 addons surviving a session start to 114, with 144 loading without a single error
- Bagnon draws a real bag and answers real gestures — hover tooltip, pickup, use, drag — because our frames wear the reference's names, and the reference's own ContainerFrame.lua runs off the player's install instead of being transcribed
- the physics broad phase leaves: nothing in the client reads a contact, and it was measured at up to 41% of main-thread samples in real sessions
