ALLWAYS 071 / A FILE HAS EDGES / V02 / 90s

Archive film handling becomes a virtual fixed worktable. Parent320×240 image, newly marked crop192×112, derivative48×28 and pixel rulers make a new editorial decision directly checkable. V01 self-review crop retained lower face despite a face-exclusion statement; V02 uses corrected crop(64,128,256,240), before independent first review. Physical film gauge remains unknown. No new physical carrier, scan, print, hands, millimetre calibration or historical recollection is claimed. New synthetic narration is editorial, not a witness statement.

Read actual independent critics and ACCEPTANCE.json. A bounded visual pass is not full audiovisual acceptance. The literal new physical performances in some operator prompts are not claimed.

Build from the extracted kit root with Python3 film71/build.py. For retained picture/PCM stages, use batch69_73/finalize.py with the generated .stage.json paths. Rebuilds reproduce editorial state; no byte-identical codec guarantee. All sources and transformation state are included under original relative paths.
