Coding, Haiku 5.5 with thinking off

Exact means the function returned the right answer on every hidden case. Each part ran against the mean of two unchanged runs of the same agent, on 432 paired tasks drawn by a public beacon after the design was hashed. The unchanged agent was exact on 93.4% of them. Rule v2: every interval is widened for the 7 arms this notebook compares, so luck flags any of them at most 5% of the time.

4 parts did nothing measurable. 2 parts are not proven either way yet. OPSIN called 4 of 6 before the beacon drew the tasks. Its foresight, committed before the beacon, gave what came back 32% on average; a guess gives 25%.
