### Known gap: elongation crash pocket
|
| 238 |
+
|
| 239 |
+
The replay playtest (`docs/P1_REPLAY_PLAYTEST_REPORT.md`, Episode 1 steps 4-5)
|
| 240 |
+
discovered VMEC crashes at `elongation ~1.25-1.30` during low-fidelity evaluation,
|
| 241 |
+
with recovery at `elongation=1.20`. This crash pocket is inside the documented
|
| 242 |
+
range `(1.2, 1.8)` and was **not mapped** by either sweep, because the targeted
|
| 243 |
+
grid did not vary elongation aggressively at feasible parameter combinations.
|
| 244 |
+
|
| 245 |
+
This means the crash zone table above is incomplete — it only maps the
|
| 246 |
+
`rotational_transform` dimension. The elongation dimension has internal crash
|
| 247 |
+
pockets that agents exploring lower elongation values will encounter.
|
| 248 |
+
|
| 249 |
+
### Scope note: low-fidelity only
|
| 250 |
+
|
| 251 |
+
Both sweeps used low-fidelity VMEC evaluation. The high-fidelity submit path
|
| 252 |
+
has its own convergence behavior documented in `docs/P1_HIGHFI_SUBMIT_BLOCKER.md`.
|
| 253 |
+
After that blocker was resolved (switching from `high_fidelity` to
|
| 254 |
+
`from_boundary_resolution` VMEC preset), the submit path converges on all
|
| 255 |
+
boundaries that low-fi converges on, but the cross-fidelity gap is
|
| 256 |
+
path-dependent — some low-fi feasible states crash at high-fi (see replay
|
| 257 |
+
playtest Episode 5).
