+The Mirror + depsgraph contract: the datablock holds only the authored half
+(126/231/106, 28 centerline verts) while the evaluated mesh is the welded
+whole — exactly `2n − c` verts, watertight with Euler 2, every vertex paired
+at negated X (deviation 0.0). Wheels and lamps mirror about object origins
+parked **on** the symmetry plane — offset the data, never the object.
+Companion to [`depsgraph-export`](examples/depsgraph-export/) (evaluated-vs-
+original) and [`shape-key-blend`](examples/shape-key-blend/) (non-destructive
+evaluation). Break the mirror and the render is literally half a car.

 - Chess-piece lathe witness: a turned piece (rook/pawn) via Screw modifier or bmesh spin from an authored profile — evaluated verts == profile × steps (minus pole merges), ring radii match the profile closed form, axis of revolution exact
 - Dice-pair per-face witness: material/attribute assignment driven by face normal direction, opposite-faces-sum-to-7 as an independently computed invariant, pip placement from a closed-form lattice
 - Bicycle-wheel radial witness: spokes via radial Array with object offset — exact angular spacing, spoke count, hub/rim concentricity, every evaluated spoke endpoint on its computed rim coordinate
