- addons load in the order NTFS lists a folder, case-insensitive with an underscore before the letters, the order the vanilla corpus was written against and the one that decides which addon provides a shared library (2178)
- GetNumAddOns and the index form of every AddOn verb walk a title-sorted list that hides the Blizzard addons the server says to hide, and the character-select AddOns list is in title order (2175)
- SetPoint and SetAllPoints raise the reference's own errors for a frame name that does not exist or an omitted relative frame instead of quietly anchoring to the parent, and an explicit nil means the screen root (2176)
- a tooltip owned with ANCHOR_CURSOR follows the mouse, which pfUI's tooltip, xpbar and chat modules, pfQuest's browser and TipBuddy ask for; an omitted or unknown anchor is ANCHOR_LEFT (2176)
- a $parent name handed to CreateFrame, CreateTexture or CreateFontString expands as it does in XML, so FonzAppraiser's thirty dropdowns and pfQuest's search icon get the names they asked for (2176)

- the mail window's send tab takes typing again: the subject, body and money boxes were taking no input while the recipient box swallowed every key, and a sent letter clears its subject and item icon instead of putting them straight back (2145)
- seven events fire the way the reference does: UNIT_DYNAMIC_FLAGS fires at all, swapping two identical stacks between bank slots fires PLAYERBANKSLOTS_CHANGED twice, the pet sheet's training points repaint, and ITEM_LOCK_CHANGED loses its invented arguments (2140)
- nine widget methods 1.12 addons probe for are in: ShaguTweaks stops recolouring textures the reference leaves alone, pfUI and _Nameplates stop raising on a tooltip's GetAnchorType, and 63 AceEvent addons get RegisterAllEvents (2142)
- six post-1.12 methods leave the widget surface (SetSize, SetShown, HasFocus, SetFormattedText and two tooltip verbs), so an addon reaching for a later client's API finds what a real 1.12 client gives it (2142, 2146)

- the cooldown pie, the GCD sweep, minimap pings and the map arrow draw again after a logout, login or /reload; they went blank until a restart, which read as OmniCC killing the cooldowns (2113)
- an addon's own font on a button label keeps its face, size and outline instead of being undone every frame, MikScrollingBattleText's reported look (2112)
- an empty label reads as nothing rather than an empty string, so Cartographer's map label keeps its colour; a slider thumb with no authored size takes its art's own size, so Dewdrop's Look'n'Feel slider moves (2109, 2110)
- Bagnon's saved bag list comes back in the order it was written, so the keyring stops jumping to the front after a restart; hovering a Bagnon bag costs a third of what it did (2111, 2114)

- five idle minutes sit you down and flag you AFK, thirty log you out through the ordinary countdown; holding a key is idle, moving the mouse is not, and a swimmer stays afloat (2092)
- a knockdown no longer wedges: the landing froze the clip that held the base-animation lock, leaving a knocked-down player on their back for the session (2098); the perf cost pill starts hidden (2099)
- Lua is exactly 1.12's 5.0 — no vararg expression, no #, no %, the remembered table size — so Cartographer loads without errors and Mik's Scrolling Battle Text shows its text, in its own shipped font now that addon TTFs load (2101, 2102, 2103)
- a widget name is a Lua global for SetPoint and its kin, so Bartender2's bars spread out; a button's NormalText disowns its justify, the raise renumbers hidden frames too, and a missing toc file warns instead of erroring (2105, 2100, 2104, 2107, 2106)

- units could be hovered through the loading screen — the sword cursor gave it away: the world pick chain has no state gate, one of fifty-one input sites, so a gate per consumer is a rule that regresses; the cut is at the source instead — one `PreUpdate` system empties the button planes, drains the raw queues, zeroes the accumulators and blanks the window's cursor position while the cover is up (the alt-tabbed-away state every consumer already handles); a press under the cover never happened, a held button is released once, a gesture in flight is cancelled, and a wall test counts the channels; the reference does the same — its raise registers a veto stub (`0x406a50`) on five event-bus categories — and one gap closed with it: the reference parks the plain arrow and drops any item overlay before the screen goes up, where benilla kept a held item's icon over the loading art (1986, 1990)
- the micro-button row is the reference's own `MainMenuBarMicroButtons.xml`, our transcription deleted — no engine verb was missing, and the whole engine-side cost is one alias, `SoundOptionsFrame = OptionsFrame`, because the stock file reads the reference's three options windows and ours is the one window for all three; what the stock file brings back: `UpdateTalentButton`'s own −2 re-seat (the five buttons after the talent button sit 1 px further right — the reference's own pixel), the raw binding token in the hover label (`(C)`, `(SHIFT-P)`), the sixty-second talent-button pulse on a ding while the sheet is closed (0304's scope-out retired), the keyring arm, and "Abilities" on the spellbook hover for a character with no spells; `BenillaActionBarArt_SeatAbove` goes with the file — a child is born one level above its parent (`SetParent` `0x76ab65`), the seat it set by hand (1987)
- hovering the player arrow on the stock world map showed an empty tooltip: narrower than 4:3 the map is scaled under 1, and our `MouseIsOver` had dropped the reference's division by `GetEffectiveScale` as "always 1" — the frame getters answer in the frame's own units, `GetCursorPosition` in the screen's; the division is back, and the region getters divide by their owner's scale too; and the ready check times out: the stock `UIParent.xml` ticks `CheckReadyCheckTime` every frame, the one unbound name in that file's way, so the mechanism behind it is built — a 30 s deadline and a "has not answered" flag per roster entry, the leader getting no popup while members print "%s has initiated a ready check" and get it, and on expiry `RAID_MEMBERS_AFK` with the unanswered names or `READY_CHECK_NO_AFK`, the last answer closing the check at once (1985, 1989)
- a review of the floor grind closed eight stale-input and bypassed-side-effect siblings the gates had left open: a never-placed card places on a still frame, the dormant-emitter skip sits below the emitter's lifetime blocks, PVS changes (not only spawns) un-still the gates, the appear ramp's retirement and a far-side unmark come due, a host born under a parked camera is judged, the projection counts as a still input, a fresh palette range is zeroed, the stable feed runs once more after a close, the unit publisher's viewer query is filtered, solo UI materials are reused by key, and the draw-list cache compares exactly; and three doc links the chat window's stock move (1948) left dangling point at what replaced them — the colour table and the tell ring are the stock Lua's now — which is what had the doc-links gate (1925) red on main

- a text write names its own label, so the per-frame measure sweep drains a short ledger instead of hashing every font string twice — ~0.3 ms a frame at the Stormwind gates, gone
- the idle interface tick stops re-writing settled state: buff durations and the weapon-enchant frame write only on change, and the fade and unit-popup drivers park until woken
- the interface extract skips a hidden region before cloning its row, not after
- WOW_UPLOAD_BUDGET=<MB> brackets the arrival burst's upload pacing — a lever for measuring world entry, not a fix yet

- the interface's layout graph is maintained as anchors change instead of rediscovered from scratch: 1.48 ms per mutated frame becomes 34 µs, and end to end a running cast now costs +0.14 ms where it cost +4.33
- the autocast shine draws its authored population — 1200 particles through the star's own projection, spinning as the model says
- the shine is clipped to its own widget: the model frame installs its rect as the viewport, so nothing it draws leaves the button

- a real skill-up prints its line; the lines the client keeps silent — class specs, racials, mounts — stay silent, off the game's own flag
- the stack-split dialog draws whole: its plate fills the window
- the four bag-bar buttons speak the reference's names all the way down, so Bagnon's overrides catch them and the backpack button lights while its window is open
- regions anchor at creation — the client's implicit-anchor law replaces a pile of draw-time fallbacks

- every ranked list now states what it dropped and `--deep` reads the whole tail — a silent top-16 over 1,946 rows had already produced one wrong "nothing left" conclusion
- the backpack and equipped gear take their seats beside the spellbook, and a rankless spell's rank comes back "" rather than nil
- a FontString answers the full Region method map as one set — a text region's GetParent works — and RaidWarningFrame and PanelTemplates_Tab_OnClick arrive for the addons that name them
- SetRaidTargetIconTexture lands: the half of a raid mark an addon draws with

- the corpus harness now seats a buff, a target and a ticking cooldown instead of an empty world, so "nothing to draw" and "failed to draw" stop sharing a row — and the richer seat immediately exposed two real gaps
- an addon button inheriting our action-button template now works even when it replaces the template's OnLoad: the handlers resolve their regions by name, the way the reference does on every access
- more of the reference's hidden-by-default frames exist by name — ReputationWatchBar, MiniMapBattlefieldFrame, MiniMapMeetingStoneFrame — for the addons that reposition them
- StartSizing lands beside its stop verb, and the sourced bag-anchor code runs against windows we actually build
