- REFUSED_SPAN_S: the 12 cycles of evidence must also span (SETTLE_CYCLES-1) * LOOP_TICK_S = 22 s. At a 1 s meter, lagged healthy readings refused both units 10-16 times an hour after load steps (site held 0 W). 2 s and slower ticks are unchanged. - REFUSES_ABOVE_CUT_OUT only for a refusal to give power: a full battery that stops taking charge is always above its cut-out level. - test_delivery: its wedged fixture (0.2 s cycles) no longer reaches a refusal; the release/1.0 checks are restored and a span check added. - test_refusal_units: lagged-reading and full-battery plants, two new checks, U14/U15 in the mutation table. Stale "> 500 W" wording fixed. DOCS/DECISIONS. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
