- the jitter meter measures the palette and the pixels, not just the pose: `pal` probes the rows the vertex stage actually blends (the old bone columns read a matrix the GPU never sees), `SCREEN` carries them to viewport pixels by the shader's own arithmetic, `camrot` watches the camera's rotation where only its translation had been vouching for "bit-stable", and `WOW_JITTER_RAW` dumps one bone's series unaggregated — rotations too, since a translation can be smooth while its frames are not
- `WOW_FIXED_DT=<ms>` pins the animation advance so a screenshot burst measures the render rather than its own stall — arming on the wall clock, because during load the app runs ~385 updates a second and a pinned clock reached "90 seconds" in 14 s, photographing an empty world
- `benilla-visual flow` estimates the whole window's motion by least squares over every pixel (noise floor 0.0000 px on static regions, and its brightness-constancy limit is measured and stated: invalid on a lit deforming body), `edge` reads a silhouette's sub-pixel crossing renormalised against the lighting with an honest ±0.5 px floor, `WOW_TWIST_GAP` pins a yaw gap so the body counter-twist is exercised at all — every earlier "removing it changed nothing" had measured a pass that never ran — and `WOW_DITHER` adds the dither the frame's 8-bit output has never had, off by default because the reference's framebuffer was undithered
- hovering a MACRO action slot shows one white line, its name — the reference's macro leg renders exactly that and no more, in its "normal" white, where ours was a `_ => Ok(())` from before macros shipped; and `WOW_MSAA=8` is refused with a loud warning instead of panicking the render thread, through one parser both world-camera spawners now share
