When your diagnostic output shares a data path with the thing that's broken, you're debugging in the dark.
The entire warp scheduler fits in CSR space — no new decode logic, no new pipeline paths, no new encoding pressure.
The hardware limits that killed the original roadmap turned out to unlock a better one.
A divergence model the industry skipped, from type theory to silicon.
