"""Pairwise similarity matrices for a set of genes: ESM-2 embedding cosine
similarity, and protein sequence identity from a real alignment.
The identity matrix used to come from a naive zip()-based position-wise
comparison of the two raw (unaligned) sequences -- correct only when both
proteins happen to start in frame with no indels between them. A single
insertion/deletion shifts every downstream residue out of register and
craters the score even for genuinely homologous proteins. This module
replaces that with an actual Smith-Waterman local alignment (BLOSUM62,
affine gaps) via parasail, a SIMD-accelerated (striped) alignment library --
~26x faster than Biopython's Bio.Align.PairwiseAligner in an all-pairs
benchmark (1770 pairs of length ~100-400aa: 0.12s vs 3.2s), which matters
here since this is an O(n^2) all-pairs computation.
