- a signpost or mailbox tooltip shows with Questie loaded, and after opening the map: the cursor-seated plate carries an owner, so Questie's OnShow hook no longer hides it (2255)
- picking up a quest whose template is not cached no longer blanks the quest log or jumps the selection: the missing quest is skipped, not the pass (2256)
- the spellbook's skill-line tab flashes when a spell lands in it (2252)
- the GPU meter's resolve rides the frame's own encoder, with no submit or poll of its own: −1.8 ms on Intel's DX12 driver when armed (2254)
- the audio starvation watch no longer charges a stream's own spin-up as silence (2253)

- a quest objective that carries both a creature and an item is two lines in the quest log, as the reference's four passes enumerate it: Graverobbers shows its Embalming Ichor (2249)
- the quest log's detail follows the live selection inside a frame, so a quest addon's log walk reads the right quest; Questie no longer files a chain quest under its shortest sibling (2247)
- a UI tint change is not a material change: a run's colour rides the batch's instance tag, so the PlayerFrame glow no longer re-prepares a material every frame (2245)
- the workspace lints clean on rustc 1.98: constant-size chunks become as_chunks, one slice fill, two unused globs
- WOW_HOVER_PROBE aims the pick in a headless run, and the inspect card names the tooltip's ladder stage (2248, 2250)

- a melee spell's tooltip says 5 yd range instead of Melee Range and grows with the reach of whatever you are auto-attacking; Heroic Strike and Bloodrage show no range line at all, as the reference does (2158)
- an item's resistances list Arcane first, and its type word comes from ItemSubClass.dbc, so every container names itself: 24 Slot Soul Bag, 8 Slot Quiver, 6 Slot Ammo Pouch (2080, 2158)
- weapon damage rounds the client's way, floor on the low bound and ceiling on the high, so Fang of the Mystics reads 38 - 86 not 39 - 86; ammo reads Adds 1.5 damage per second (2158)
- an arrow's slot line reads Projectile | Arrow and a bullet's Projectile | Bullet, the word the reference takes from ItemClass.dbc where we printed the type alone (2158)

- a cooldown still running when you log out and back in keeps sweeping instead of vanishing, and another character no longer inherits the previous session's cooldowns (2116)
- the server's Welcome and Patch 1.12 lines print at login in system yellow, and a character whose General, Trade and LocalDefense had gone silent for good gets them back at the next login (2119, 2120)
- the stock Interface Options window loads hidden beside ours, so pfUI's options skin finds the real thing; the Auto-join Guild Recruitment Channel row has a real store, and a /reload no longer trips on its camera dropdowns (2115)
- the combat log words a power gain on the display scale, so MikScrollingBattleText shows +1 Rage where it showed +10; a 1.12 predicate answers 1 or nil rather than a Lua boolean, the test ColorPickerPlus makes (2117, 2118)
- a Lua error quotes a program element with a backquote the way 5.0 does, so AceLibrary's argument checks report their caller instead of raising inside the error path (2122)

- the last app-side lines become GlobalStrings keys — tooltip cells, party, petition, duel, quest, PvP and rest lines read the install's own wording, so a non-enUS chain shows its own text (2045, 2080)
- a locked chest says Requires Pick Lock, ammo and thrown weapons drop their invented slot word, a met set bonus reads Set: without the count, and a 100 s cooldown reads 1.67 min as the template prints it
- the level-up block and the free-professions line printed twice in chat and print once; a declined invite, a friend coming online, a duel request and a failed quest play the sound 1.12 gives them
- Duel cancelled. is the yellow line at the top of the screen, and a trainer refusal or a failed quest with no cached template shows nothing, as on 1.12

- `UnitHasRelicSlot` is real in 1.12 and benilla had no binding for it: `0x519e50` reads `ChrClasses.dbc` field 16 — set for Paladin, Shaman and Druid in `patch.MPQ`'s 17-column copy (the base `dbc.MPQ` copy has 16 columns and no such field, which is how the "always false in vanilla" belief survived twice in decisions and seven times in code) — and stock `PaperDollFrame.lua` calls it unconditionally, so the character sheet would have raised for EVERY class; a druid, paladin or shaman's sheet now hides the ammo slot, shows the relic plate where the bow was, tooltips "Relic", and reports ranged Attack/Damage/Power as N/A, all four branches transcribed from the reference
- the loot window is the reference's own `LootFrame.xml`: `LootButton` is built as a real widget type rather than aliased (a Button plus one slot dword and one overridden OnClick — right-click loots exactly like left, no shift/ctrl/alt takes, a row whose Lua handler errored still loots, a fast double-click takes two slots), `LOOT_SLOT_CLEARED` fires per row again because the stock file hangs hide-in-place AND the emptied-page auto-advance off it, `EditBox:Insert(nil)` is a no-op as `lua_tostring` makes it, and an alias `GameTooltip.xml` had quietly become a reader of would have turned every item tooltip white, silently, had it just gone nil
- the vendor cursor: `PickupMerchantItem` is two verbs behind one name, decided by what the cursor holds and never by the caller — a held bag item SELLS (index ignored, no merchant-open gate), otherwise the vendor row is grabbed as cursor mode 5, which is invisible to `CursorHasItem` (modes 1 and 9 only) so all thirteen stock gates stay closed while it is held; the drop is the buy, `CMSG_BUY_ITEM_IN_SLOT`, count 1, into a bag or an equipment slot, and every refusal is silent and clears the cursor; the four `Model_*` rotation handlers land in UIParent where the reference keeps them
- the gap report reads `:Method(` sites now — it found `SetMerchantCompareItem`, which would have raised on the first vendor-row hover with every check green, and `LootButton:SetSlot`, and 28 "free" windows became 25; the shared coin kit moved out of the merchant window into `MoneyFrame.xml` so the eight windows that draw coins through it can reach it without loading a vendor

- the "Resurrect Now" prompt was never a click: release sends the corpse query, the position is cached, and a per-frame range check (d² ≤ 1600 — 40 yards) raises CORPSE_IN_RANGE, whose Lua raises the prompt, whose button sends CMSG_RECLAIM_CORPSE — a chain we already ran at exactly 40.0; what we were missing was the bones gate: every one of the reference's three latch writers requires the corpse's bones bit clear as well as ownership, and RetrieveCorpse itself carries no guard at all, so our reclaim guid could have named a pile of bones — the gate is in now, at create and on the in-place flip
- a corpse publishes a mouseover: the "Corpse of %s" name plate and the +64 brighten, applied before the publisher's type switch with no type test — any real body qualifies, owner irrelevant, only a bone pile with nothing to take is dropped — and it fires no event, so UnitName("mouseover") over a body stays nil, here as there; sitting refuses the corpse loot click with the client-local red not-standing error and no send; and the insignia doc is corrected — bit 5 unlocks spell 22027 "Remove Insignia", the corpse's actual PvP flag is bit 2, and there is no skinning of players in 1.12.1
- the size tripwire counts code, not lines: 145 flagged files → 15, because in this codebase the comments are the knowledge base and the tests are the gate — one flagged file was 4357 lines of which 5 are code, another 1566 with ZERO — so the budget (unchanged at 1000) now counts non-test, non-comment source, calibrated so the one split on record that actually mattered still fires

- a corpse is a body you can hover, cursor and click: it enters the same ray pass as units with the winner switched on type at publish (the reference's own shape — one trace over every object), the cursor classifier is transcribed whole (lootable-by-me → the pickup cursor, grayed by range; else the insignia leg behind the learned-skill latch; your own body falls through to the clear), and right-click is "not mounted AND lootable" → CMSG_LOOT; CORPSE_FIELD_FLAGS bit 5 is the PvP insignia flag, not "reclaimable" as an old note had it; the widening also caught that a GameObject anywhere on screen could steal the click from a nearer corpse, and that a left-click on a body cleared your target as if you had clicked ground
- the cinematic sweep closes eleven holes: a shot plays its sequence band's WIDTH, not its end — two shipped fly-bys band away from zero and ran long with their opening frames frozen (the Night Elf intro measured 102333 → 102000 ms); CMSG_NEXT_CINEMATIC_CAMERA announces every shot, the first included — the old "between shots" reading meant it was sent NEVER, since every 1.12 sequence row carries exactly one camera; the ack invariant is stated once (one CMSG_COMPLETE_CINEMATIC per accepted trigger, over-acking tolerated, under-acking never — a dropped ack despawns the world around you until relog); the hardware cursor hides for the shot; and the music cut lands in the frame that starts it — it was one frame late, exactly long enough for a first login's zone fanfare to start under the narration and be stamped as played
- RunBinding exists, and a fly-by stops handing the world its mouse: CinematicFrame's OnKeyDown hands the SCREENSHOT chord back to its binding through RunBinding, a global we never had, so every press during a fly-by raised and took no picture; and the mouse was fully live under a shot — right-drag turned the character, clicks picked targets through the flying camera, both buttons walked the body — so the pointer now reads as over the UI while a shot plays
- AdvanceTime and ReplaceIconTexture are carved off the bytes: AdvanceTime really is a no-op in the reference (its one reachable call is mov eax,1; ret), ReplaceIconTexture is a material swap over a model's type-14 texture slots that stores nothing on the widget, and SetModel(nil) RAISES — the "documented clear" our binding claimed was invented, not read; and the addon roster now says WHOSE package is short when a .toc names files the folder doesn't hold — nine of the corpus's twenty-nine load failures are the addon's own manifest, which the real client also shrugs off ("Couldn't open %s", carry on), so they stop reading as our defects

- priest tooltips drop their bogus red lines ("Requires Shadowform" on Psychic Scream and Inner Fire, "Requires Spirit of Redemption" on Flash Heal): `Spell.dbc`'s Stances mask is an allow-list, not a requirement, when `AttributesEx2` bit 19 is set — 244 of the 522 masked spells carry the waiver, and the tooltip now consults the same gate the cast validator already did; Charge's "Requires Battle Stance" still asserts
- a hovering mover refuses the jump, silently — no packet, no toast — exactly as `CMovement::Jump` does: the HOVER test sits ahead of the swim select, so a levitating swimmer can't breach either; the old gate refused on ROOT only
- opening a lock gates on your skill, never your level: mining with 1 Mining no longer appears to open a 300 vein only to be bounced by the server — the client-side "Requires Mining ≥N" refusal fires with no packet sent, and the level term rides the skill block through the same clamp the reference uses
- the Mod/Mod2x fade was never a deviation — preset 5 IS the identity-lerp, byte-exact, five comment sites re-lawed with no behaviour change; and the garble word pool (`LanguageWords.dbc`) loads, the first hop of the language scramble that lands next

- the in-game UI ends at the character screen and is rebuilt at the next login, so addons that read the character at file scope stop being frozen on whoever logged in first
- everything the host remembers about a UI is keyed on that VM's identity — keybinds, macro icons and every feed survive the rebuild instead of silently pushing nothing
- a ribbon trail rides the room its model is drawn by: Caverns of Time's ninety energy trails stop burning through 200 yards of rock
- the visibility census gains the sky and ribbon lanes it could not see, and the logout leak probe measures after the release instead of accusing every run

- a player build ships beside the dev one — dev chords and probe surfaces go dark, and a gate enforces what a player can still reach, by medium not by module
- the binary carries its own shaders and its shipped UI, finds the WoW folder by itself, and keeps its local state in one benilla-config folder
- the glue screens get a capture shutter, and the engine stops depending on the protocol crate

- timed quests get their countdown — a Quest Timers box under the minimap and a Time Remaining line in the quest log, kept against the server's own clock
- interiors go honest: footsteps stop crunching the terrain's snow through a building's floor, and tavern voices are authored dry, so the fake cave echo is gone
- snow is the reference's again — point-sprite flakes at the era's pixel size, and a spawn slab that leans into your run so a runner no longer outruns the field
- Stormwind stops drawing Elwynn through its walls, a looted quest crate's lid settles, cold zones puff visible breath, and the collect-quest toast fires only on a real advance

- clicking a book in the world opens it and turns its pages: letters and world books share one reader
- the cursor's object rules are the client's own 31-row strategy table now, so decorative objects stop pretending to be usable
- trainer and tradeskill windows draw each row's icon by the reference's own law, and the trainer's filter dropdown toggles again
- water color follows the zone's light blend, so lakes stop snapping between area tints

- the whole loop plays: the line arcs rod tip to bobber, the bite splashes with its own sound, and clicking the bobber reels in
- the verdicts read like 1.12: yellow "your fish got away" lines, the reel-in sound, the fishing loot window
- "You feel rested." prints on the transition, rest states come from the client's own Exhaustion table, and level 60 trades the XP strip for the max-level rail
- the Skills pane lists what the real client lists: the hidden rows, the sort, gray numberless single-rank lines

- a chat link edits as one atomic token: the caret can't land inside it, its colors survive, one keypress removes it whole
- spell tooltips print the resolved mana cost through the reference's own table walk, and the "% of base mana" line dies
- the spirit healer's confirm comes back after a cancel and wears its warning icon
- the dressing room's pane is a live animating model, and a tried-on bow lands in the hand
