strict old-skill vs new-skill comparison

ui-polish · same task A

Wave theme: rest-anchor home-locus poise. Old keeps the same grouped home lens readable, buoyant, softly compliant, gathered, shoulder-tapered, and clearly settled around Quiet, but the home center still feels a little laterally pulled toward Quiet. New keeps the same grouped field while restoring a little more poised balance around Quiet itself, so the home state feels less sideways-dragged and more calmly held by Quiet.

Method. Old side is the real pre-update output from the previous wave. Then ui-polish was updated, and the same task A was rerun to produce the new side. This is a strict old-vs-new comparison for the same panel brief.

Focus on Quiet at rest and then hover Studio Mode. The new side should keep the same depth, buoyancy, membrane hold, gel compliance, gathered-meniscus character, shoulder taper, and home-locus bias while feeling a little more calmly balanced around Quiet itself.

New skill · rest-anchor home-locus poise
Same home lens and grouped field, but the Quiet center now feels less dragged and more calmly poised around Quiet itself.
