Holtburger reference fast-forwarded from 88b19bd to 629695a (+237 commits).
Four parallel research agents produced a parity-first-pass between
holtburger's network stack and acdream's src/AcDream.Core.Net/.
Why captured now: study surfaced six small, high-confidence "Tier 1" fixes
that can ship before the bigger M.1-M.8 layer extraction. Most likely fix
for the longstanding "remote retail observer sees us not perfect" bug
(MoveToState wire-format mismatches). Two transport gaps (no EchoResponse
reply, eager port-switch) match recent holtburger fixes (403bc98, 99974cc).
One latent bug worth a 5-min check (ISAAC search-mode for out-of-order
ENCRYPTED_CHECKSUM packets).
Captured as Phase M.0 in the roadmap so the work survives the session and
can be picked up later. Existing M.1-M.8 lift unchanged; M.1 marked as
partially started since the research note is the parity-map deliverable
in draft form.
