Building round 1's oracle exposed two defects in the round as written, both
mine, and both invisible until something tried to satisfy it.
The glyph set was chosen by subpath count. I wrote that 19 of the 37 bundled
outlines have more than one subpath and named gClef, fClef, timeSig8 and
accidentalFlat as the useful ones -- conflating multi-subpath with has-a-hole.
fClef is the counter-example: its three subpaths are a bowl and two SOLID,
disjoint dots, nested in nothing. Measured across all 37 by point-in-path,
exactly twelve carry a bounded hole; fClef, cClef, barlineFinal and every
repeat glyph carry none.
Round 1 now runs five glyphs in two classes testing two different properties.
Hole checks -- gClef, timeSig8, accidentalFlat and noteheadHalf, which is new
and earns its place by being frequently repeated and semantically consequential
(a filled counter renders half notes as quarter notes, a notation error rather
than an artifact). Disjoint-component check -- fClef alone, no background
requirement, instead requiring one ink point inside EACH of its three filled
subpaths, tagged with its subpath index. That second class catches a
tessellator that keeps only the largest contour, which would pass every hole
check ever written. Hard failure is now stated as either: a bounded hole
painted as ink, or a required filled subpath omitted.
The oracle's status model is now specified rather than inferred from an
absence. fClef passing with zero background points is a SATISFIED result under
its own requirement class; recording it only as background_satisfied = false
would make a correct outcome indistinguishable from a failed one.
The second defect was the criterion itself. Ruling A said epaint does not
implement even-odd/nonzero fill for paths with holes -- framing criterion 1
around the fill RULE. Bravura's contours are correctly oppositely wound
(signed ring areas gClef [8.702, -0.691, -1.803, -0.509]; fClef
[2.534, 0.153, 0.148], all positive, the same fact from the other side), so
even-odd and nonzero AGREE on every bundled hole. The rule is not load-bearing;
preserving every filled contour and every bounded counter is. The criterion is
amended to compound-path / inner-subpath fill correctness, with a more accurate
reason for excluding raw egui shapes than the one it replaces: PathShape is a
single point loop documenting "Fill is only supported for convex polygons", so
it cannot express compound-fill or subtractive-hole semantics -- a Shape::Vec
can group loops, but grouping paints them, it does not subtract a counter from
its enclosing contour.
Signed areas are recorded from the oracle's adaptive flattening rather than an
earlier coarse fixed-step measurement, with the note that magnitudes are
flattening-dependent and the SIGNS are the claim.
