# v3 coverage

All original required sections remain in MANUSCRIPT.md. Section 19.9 adds C1-C6; 29.7-29.9 add E10-E11; 30.2 states the new research opportunity; 33 gives current status. The map below describes the retained foundational sections.

# Coverage of the 41 research directives

All required topics are addressed; coverage is not equivalent to experimental completion. Sections refer to MANUSCRIPT.md and the PDF.

## Version 2 evidence update

All 33 output categories and 41 research directives remain covered in the full manuscript. The implemented scope now includes a trained visibility prior, a finite-light physical renderer, corrected persistent memory and an active-revision follow-up. See Sections 19.4-19.8 and 29.4-29.6. Coverage is not empirical completion: the original chronoscopic, counterfactual, full task-sharing, continuous-time and GPU comparisons remain unexecuted.
