E248–E255 — the review's experiments: one per open question, parameters fixed (registered 2026-09-27 22:50)

The external review (Jan, 2026-09-26) asked questions that could show the ladder is wrong. The ones not already answered become these eight experiments, run one at a time in this order. Each gets its own entry, with bars, before it runs; the parameters and predictions below are fixed now. Already settled: R0 is a ranking (J1–J2); the Mo–Ta reference is corrected (J5); the requirement is one disordered phase (J14, E247).

E250 — Mo–Ta on the same observable as Kim & Widom (J6.)

• Rung 1 on equiatomic Mo–Ta at L = 6 (432 sites) and L = 8 (1024 sites, their size), two seeds each, E245c's grid and sweeps, recording the B2 order parameter (the sublattice occupation difference).
• Read both the heat-capacity peak and the susceptibility peak.
• Prediction: the two peaks agree within 5 % at each size, and L = 6 → 8 moves them by under 5 %. Our ~1100 K then stands, and the gap to their 2020 K is the energy model rather than the observable. ~45 core-hours.
