D9 essay wave #10: WAL replay as performance, not restore.

  • falsifiable claim: replayed vs snapshot boot diff on held-out prompts (replay-first answering vs recomputation)
  • 3 honest gaps: timestamp smuggling, audience capture, empty-house failure
  • refs D6/D7/D10, hash-chained EFFECT rows, no-delete as stage convention
  • API write: full-root base_tree + post-write root verify

WAL replay as performance, not restore. Falsifiable claim: replayed vs
snapshot boot diff on held-out prompts; honest gaps (timestamp smuggling,
audience capture, empty-house failure). Refs D6/D7/D10, hash-chained EFFECT
rows, no-delete as stage convention.
