"""Exact Claim 6 audit for arXiv:2601.05427.
This closes the two gaps identified by the live judge:
1. Measure the log-log exponent, rather than merely checking that detection
time decreases with epsilon, on the authors' executed Grid Soccer and
Predator-Prey outputs.
2. Re-run the paper's actual 10x10 Predator-Prey unknown-magnitude mixture
protocol, including true epsilon values absent from the monitor's grid.

The fresh run is a vectorized implementation of the notebook protocol. It
uses log wealth (algebraically identical to multiplying likelihood ratios) to
avoid the overflow warning present in the released notebook.
