A candidate-driven detector can only judge sites something else enumerates,
so the enumerator caps recall. Measured over the 58 scorable web pairs before
building anything:
pattern ruleset: 12.1% ceiling -- and the misses are not near-misses, the
ruleset finds nothing at all in most of these files
semantic IR: 96.6% ceiling, a median of ten call sites and bindings
inside the labeled function
The ruleset would have capped us at 12.1% against the 64.9% the unconstrained
loop already reaches. That design was one commit from being built.
Two corpus defects found on the way, both mine from task 4.1. The overleaf
excerpt started mid-import, because `_declarator_start` walks back to the
nearest `}` and Overleaf writes JavaScript without semicolons, so the nearest
one was inside `import { expressify }`. It then ended mid-object-literal,
because registration mentions were appended as bare lines. Neither parsed,
and a pair that cannot be parsed cannot be scored. Registration mentions now
expand to the statement that contains them; the ceiling moved 94.8% -> 96.6%.
