// NIAH → reasoning gap predictor (v0.7.6 anti-bullshit pack #7)
// Predicts pass rate at a given evaluation context for two tasks:
// - NIAH (Needle in a Haystack): single-fact retrieval, lenient
// - Multi-hop reasoning: chained inference, strict
// And the GAP — the dominant failure mode for "long context" claims.
//
// Calibration: rough empirical fit to RULER paper bands (NVIDIA 2024) +
// observed degradation curves on Llama-3.1, Mistral, Qwen2.5 at 8k/16k/32k/64k.
// Uses TAF's existing γ_Padé / d_horizon machinery for the architectural input.
//
// Pure logic — no human strings. Render via i18n in main.js.

// for any specific (model, context) pair where NVIDIA published a
// measurement, the published number is GROUND TRUTH. This block layers

// data/ruler_kb.json, we interpolate the published RULER aggregate at
// the requested T_eval and back out per-task estimates via the paper's
// retrieval-vs-reasoning factor band.
//
// Anti-bullshit principle: if measured data exists, USE the measured
// data, don't ship a heuristic guess that contradicts it. Surface the
// heuristic-vs-calibrated delta so users see when our predictor was
// over- or under-confident vs the published ground truth.
