Protocol change log

Change the method openly—or start a new batch.

Tool meaning, fixture, sampling, task rules, or comparison conditions can change. Each material change receives a dated record and cannot silently carry an old rank into a new method.

Protocol 0.1 · Initial public draft

Published the common fixture, default-configuration, batch comparability, nine-task, correction, and commercial-independence rules before the first formal run.

Effect on published conclusions

No result or ranking changed because no public benchmark result existed.

Comparability policy

A material protocol change creates a new comparison boundary.

Old evidence remains available with its original cutoff. New results can be compared directly only inside a batch that shares the changed protocol and conditions.
