Emergent α — Independent Lock, Article Branch, and Optional QED Regression

The page is organized by the actual computation path: independent vector representative \(\Lambda_{\mathrm{geom}}\), then ALP, then \(D_C^{\mathrm{lock}}\), then \(\alpha_{\mathrm{article}}\). The QED branch is rendered separately as an optional diagnostic and is never fed back into the geometric lock.
