nx_nxa_morf_gate.nx

nx_nxa_morf_gate.nx -- FACE AND MORF ARE GEOMETRY, NOT TAGS. The subject organ closes the last two ABSENT rows on nx_asset_floor_gate. That gate's own law is the reason this one exists: PRESENCE OF A SECTION IS NOT PRESENCE OF THE CAPABILITY. A FACE section holding zero indices and a MORF section holding zero deltas would flip the floor score to 7/7 while the character remained exactly as expressionless as before. So every tooth here asks a question a tag cannot answer: - does FACE carry real vertex membership, and is every index inside the mesh - does MORF carry a displacement set for every declared channel, each with a NON-EMPTY support - does full weight produce EXACTLY the stored vertex deltas, including unchanged non-FACE vertices, independently of the subject's stdout (zero taper at a support edge is allowed) - is a zero weight BYTE-IDENTICAL to the input (a no-op morph must be provably a no-op; size equality would not do, so this compares every byte) - is derive DETERMINISTIC (two runs, byte-identical) The negative controls are real artifacts, not fixtures invented to fail: the banked pre-change asset (which genuinely lacks both sections) and a malformed channel spec. This gate re-declares the section layout rather than importing it from the subject. That is deliberate: an independent reader is a witness, whereas sharing the subject's own accessor would let one bug agree with itself. license_tier: ORIGINAL No hw writes (Rule 26). expect_exit: 0
