            (see compact_cta_worklist). Each bucket gets its own batched NS call
            sized to its OWN width instead of every wide cluster in the batch
            being padded to the single widest one -- a rare small/narrow outlier
            cluster no longer forces the whole batch's NS schedule to run at the
            widest bucket's L (and cost)."""

              wide group: dense (no degeneracy at all) and geometric (wide cluster
              of CLOSE-BUT-DISTINCT eigenvalues: the per-column jittered solves
              keep the block spanning without any interleaved reorth; measured
              orth 7.6e-5 / resid 3.5e-7 at (640,512), vs the full interleave's
              identical correctness at ~1.7x the cost).
            P1 (1 hashed solve + light GS + 1 solve + final GS) -- degenerate
              groups present but none wide (clustered: width-16 exact ties). The
              mid-GS re-levels the tie subspaces between solves; without it the
              ties collapse (measured orth 1.4).
            P4 (random block + solve + light GS + solve + final GS) -- a WIDE
              exactly-tied group exists (rankdef: 129+ identical zeros). Exact
              ties defeat the hashed-RHS start of P1/P3: the invit kernel's RHS
              (1 + small hash) makes every column nearly parallel to the
              all-ones vector, and with >128 tie members two columns even share
              the same shift-jitter bucket -- rank lost in an exact tie is
              UNRECOVERABLE by any within-span redraw (the span itself is
              deficient), so this flow starts from a cached well-conditioned
              randn block instead. Measured: the only flow that passes rankdef.

            Why exact ties (Sturm gap == 0 in fp32) and not the tight 1e-6 probe
            as the P4 trigger: close-but-distinct eigenvalues get per-column
            separation from the jittered shifts, exact ties do not.

            merged the ENTIRE rankdef spectrum (tail spacing 2.6e-3) into one

            passing only the (too generous) relaxed oracle, and would fail the
