The megakernel family cannot use `_factory/spec.py`: those tasks grade ONE pure function over shape
tuples, whereas these grade a STATEFUL, multi-step workload under measured fusion gates with a
throughput reward.
Two sub-families share this spec and this builder:
* `family="e1"` — whole-model decode megakernels. Reward is tokens/s; the gates are correctness,
kernels-per-step and dominant-kernel share, and the kernel-count gate is what makes it a megakernel
task rather than a speed task.
* `family="e2"` — enabling primitives (a device-wide barrier, an instruction interpreter, a fused
layer, a warp-specialised GEMV...). These are NOT whole models, so the kernels-per-*step* gate is
not automatically the right thing to grade; each e2 spec sets its own limits and must justify them
in `gates_md`.
Numbers below that look arbitrary are measured — see CALIBRATION.md.
