`narrow` said what the argument did to a value it never named, so a reader
had to go and find out which value. It is `narrow_rel_base`, and the
resolved one stays the bare `rel_base` -- which is also the only one in
`Painter`, `Placing` and `LayoutHolds`, where there is nothing to tell it
apart from.
It takes `impl Into<Option<[Option<Len>; 2]>>`, so a container that does not
narrow anything writes `None` rather than `[None; 2]`, and `Span` builds the
one case that does with a `then` instead of a mutable array.
Cold layout is byte-identical to `84dad21`.
`frame` named a length, not a rectangle, which was the one word in the
layout vocabulary that lied about its own shape. It is `rel_base`: what a
fraction a widget declares or reports is a fraction of.
Three API changes with it, all for containers that do one simple thing:
- `widget_within(id, region)` returns, taking a box in the widget's own
coordinates and deriving the child's rel base from it. `Offset` and `Pad`
are one call each again. `Offset` also stops reading `region_len`, which
pinned its drawing to a box length it does not care about.
- `place_at` takes the rel base, returns the answer, and asks the child
where there is no answer to re-express. Which of the two happens is the
painter's to work out, so `Span`'s second pass is one call and its
`drawn_across` bookkeeping is gone.
- `Part::All` is a `Part::WHOLE` constant rather than a variant, since it
was exactly `Of(UiSpan::FULL)` and bought a separate arm in two matches.
Measured at 0.07% of instructions retired against 0.04% run-to-run noise.
Cold layout is byte-identical to `84dad21` over 400 depth-5 trees.
The split box was named `region` and `placement` on 2026-09-17; `frame`
came back as a length and survived, `extent` did not. It stayed as the
name for both halves, distinguished only by prose: `draw_at` bound the
caller's `part` to a parameter called `extent`, and `ActiveData` held two
`UiRegion`s that `draw_at` wrote `part: extent` from.
The box a parent asks a widget in is now the region, and where its
drawing ends up is its placement. `Painter`'s four holds accumulators
become the one `LayoutHolds` they were assembled into, which also drops
the name mapping between them.
The cold dump of 400 depth-5 trees is byte-identical across the change.
A share child was drawn in the measuring room and again in its slot, and
one record holding two questions made every local change under it defer
to the span. Where a rule or a hint gives the length along the span, the
first ask answers nothing the rule does not, so the child is asked once,
in its slot; the widgets that always report the whole of their box now
say so. A hint with a fraction resolves against the frame and pins it.
The dump rig prints every cold layout so a change to it shows in a diff.
Branch reads a measurement in pixels and draws a different subtree either
side of a threshold, and it left that read as a pin on the window, so
every one of them redrew on every resize: at depth 8 that was seed 1's
resize going from 40 widget draws to 131 and seed 13's from nothing to
828. It now states the range it actually branched on, the way Span states
the one that decides whether its shares have room. A fixture that redraws
everything on a resize cannot tell a change that reuses well from one
that does not.

A widget that resolves a window length in pixels depends on that window
wherever the length is a fraction of it, and nothing was recording that:
Painter::to_px replaces window_px_len and pins the window it read, while
a length that is only pixels is that many pixels in any window and pins
nothing. Span still states the range it actually branched on, which
replaces the pin with something wider.
Scroll is where it showed: its content's answer is a window length now,
so a viewport whose own box does not change with the window -- 40 px of
a branch's box -- kept an end-snapped offset from the window before.

There is one coordinate unit, the window. Every box in the tree is a
region in window units and a widget's frame is a length in the same
units, which is only what fractions resolve against, so the box need not
be the frame and padding can take from both without either becoming the
other. A region node's entry is a translation -- a rel 1 region anchored
where its box starts -- rather than a box, so nothing composes a frame
back up a chain and a node that moves is one entry write.
Padding is then an inset of both: its pixels come off the frame, so
rel(1.0) under it fills the padded widget rather than overflowing it,
and off the box, so what is drawn sits inside. A length a container
decides for a child's frame is a length of the window like everything
else here -- a row's slot, padding's frame less its pixels, or the box a
stack's sizing child decided, which arrives as Part::Sized -- because a
slot of a row is not a fraction of anything the row can name, the same
reason a node entry is a translation. A declaration is a fraction of
whichever of those reached it, and is the only one that also places the
box.
Frame validity is a pin beside the box's, not a range: a range of window
pixels cannot say which frame an answer is a fraction of, since two
frames are different lengths at the same window size. A widget pins its
frame by reading it or by being answered with it under a fractional
rule, and the pin composes up wherever a length of this frame is what
reached the child.
Also here, because the diagnosis needed them: the shrinker reports the
shrunk tree's own divergence with each level's frame, ask, box and size
warm against cold, and there is a size-resize case -- a change and then a
resize, the order that shows an answer kept as a fraction of the wrong
length, which every other case compares at the window it was made at.
Three defects the reports found, each pinned: a rule changed over two
pads relocated the column under them instead of dividing it again (seed
59, depth 5, resize-size), a share inside padding had the padding taken
off twice, and a root resolved its own rule twice.

A widget draws in the box it is asked in and its answer is placed inside
that box by re-expressing the drawing; nothing is drawn again in a box an
answer chose. The offer machinery, whose job was to tell a measuring draw
from a placing one, goes with the placing draw. A span measures each child
from its cursor and moves fixed children to their slots with place_at; a
share child is asked once more in its decided slot with its frame narrowed
to it. A stack asks non-sizing children in the box its sizing child
decided. A scroll asks its content once and moves it to the scrolled
offset. A local redraw asks the retained question again and puts the
answer back where the parent placed it.
A symbolic length a child pinned composes through Part::Of exactly where
the part is the whole box less pixels, and pins the parent's own length
otherwise; dropping it let a pad reuse a drawing across a narrowed frame
of the same pixel length (shrinker seeds 60, 248 and 384 at depth 5).

Three things the measurements asked for, all about how much a box that came
from an answer costs.
**A part in the box's own coordinates.** Saying "less eleven pixels at the
end" in frame lengths from the box's start means reading how long the box is,
and a container whose box is its own answer then depends on its own answer:
`Pad` drew sixty-four times in one resize frame at seed 13, chasing its own
width. `Part::Of` says the same thing as a part of the box, which composes
without a length -- pixels are pixels wherever the box lands -- and what a
child under it holds for maps back through that part onto the container's
own box rather than onto the frame.
**One axis of the box at a time.** `extent_len` pinned both axes, so a span
dividing one of them held for one length of the other as well, and a resize
broke every span whose cross-axis answer moved.
**No lazy placement.** Leaving a child's answer to be placed at the end of
the parent's draw, rather than as the child answers, was meant to save a
recomposition. It costs one instead: the drawing is put in the part first
and in the answer's box after, and where it does not hold for both that is
two drawings rather than one. Seed 1 at depth 8 went from 391 widget draws
on a resize to 29 with it gone. The test that pinned three draws for a
numeric leaf in a span goes with it.
Seed 1 at depth 8, widget draws / distinct widgets / update, against #18's
head and against the commit this branch started from:
| phase | e44dea3 | 34cafb6 | here |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| cold | 369/261/10.6 | 463/274/13.3 | 516/288/12.0 |
| repaint | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| many | 157/95/0.33 | 263/108/0.59 | 187/119/0.52 |
| size | 16/12/0.018 | 3/3 | 3/3/0.010 |
| scroll | 2/0.002 | 1 | 1/0.004 |
| resize | 13/13/0.019 | 22/15/0.032 | 24/76/0.090 |
Seed 13 at depth 8 is where the protocol still costs: `many` 1091 draws
against #18's 524, and `resize` 2215 against a frame #18 does not draw at
all. Both are the same shape -- an answer measured in one box and drawn in
another -- and the handoff says where that comes from.
Checked: fmt, clippy with -D warnings, 108 suite tests, 20 core tests, the
11 generated cases, and the shrinker at 400 trees of depth 5, which fails
seeds 2 (repaint) and 108 (reorder).
A widget is asked in two boxes rather than one. Its frame is what a fraction
it declares or reports is a fraction of, and it passes through a span, a
stack and a scroll unchanged, so `rel(0.5)` is half the same area however
many containers sit between: a frame is narrowed only by what is decided
above the widget -- a declared length, the root. Its extent is where the
drawing goes, given as a `Place` per axis: a part of the parent's own box,
measured in frame lengths from where that box starts, which the child either
fills or has its answer placed inside.
What that buys is that nothing under a container depends on where the
container sits. A container reads `extent_len` for the length it divides and
nothing about the start, so moving it re-places its children by re-adding
that start and draws nobody again; and a fraction is resolved once, against
the frame, rather than once per box it is composed through -- a stack sized
by a child that reports `rel(0.5)` no longer takes half of half.
`Place` replaces `DrawRegion`, `ExtentPlacement`, `widget_within`,
`measure_len`, `region()`, `placement()` and `box_of`. Primitives and masks
are written in the widget's own box's coordinates alone, so the drawing has
one reference rather than two. The placement pin goes with them: reading the
extent's length pins that length symbolically, and pins compose only where a
child's box is its parent's own.
Placing an answer waits for the end of the parent's draw or for the next ask
of that child in it, so a span child is one drawing and one move rather than
two moves.
`Pad` is transparent: its padding goes around what it pads and its child
keeps the outer frame, which is where `Outset` was going anyway. A fraction
under a pad is now a fraction of the frame rather than of the inset box.
Checked: fmt, clippy with -D warnings, 109 suite tests and 20 core tests in
debug, the 11 generated cases, and the shrinker at 400 trees of depth 5 over
all fifteen cases -- which still finds seed 108 under `reorder`, where a
wrapping text measured in one box and drawn in another settles differently
warm than cold. `redraw` therefore keeps the baseline's deferral for a box
that is not as long as the one the widget was measured in; the plan's step
6 is not done, and the next commit message or the handoff says why.
The oracle grew its trees from a seed and the shrinker grew its own, with
every scenario written out on each side. So a failure the oracle found could
not be handed to the shrinker: there was no tree to pass it, only a seed, and
a seed cannot be made smaller. The shrinker could only grow its own trees and
hope to meet the same shape, which it does not -- 20,000 of its trees never
reproduced what the oracle's seed 18 shows at depth 6.
`iris::random` now answers with a `Plan`: `plan(seed, depth, &edits)` draws one
out of the random stream and `build(rsc, &plan)` makes the widgets, where
`grow` did both at once. Every draw happens in the order it always has, so a
seed still means the tree it meant -- checked by running the oracle at 1000
seeds of depth 6 before and after and getting the same three failures with the
same boxes. `Plan::smaller` reduces one, `Plan::edited` applies an `Edits` to a
tree that already exists, and `tests/scenario/` holds the fifteen cases both
rigs now run over the same trees.
A span keeps the order it holds its children in apart from the children
themselves, so detaching, attaching and reordering leave the widgets made in
the same order and two builds still line up index for index. `Tree::detached`
is gone: `Spanned::spares` is everything made for a span that it does not
hold, which is what both of those were.
`tests/cases/plan.rs` pins the three properties the rest rests on: editing a
plan is growing one with those edits, every simplification is smaller than
what it came from, and reducing ends. The second caught this change's own
defect, where dropping a side of a `Branch` duplicated another and grew the
tree by four widgets.
What it found, on its first run: `SHRINK_SEED=18 SHRINK_DEPTH=6
SHRINK_CASE=repaint-some` reduces 277 widgets to 5. A scroll inside a scroll,
the inner one owning a movable region, and only the text at the bottom marked
for redraw -- and the span lands 24px out, which is exactly the sized child's
height. `git bisect` names `95fb4f9`, where `Masked` began reporting its box
rather than its inner's size, so what the outer scroll is told its content
measures now depends on whether the inner subtree was redrawn this frame.
`tests/cases/unsettled.rs` has it written out, ignored until it is fixed.
Checked: fmt, clippy over all targets with -D warnings, the workspace tests
(79 + 11 + 15, one ignored for the defect above), and the 100-seed oracle over
all fifteen cases at depth 4. The shrinker at 400 seeds of depth 5 now fails,
which it did not before running the oracle's trees and cases: seeds 2 and 288
on region-node and 174 and 175 on repaint-some are unreduced leads.

`Branch` picks which of two subtrees to draw by comparing a measured pixel
length with a threshold. That is exactly what the oracle wants -- it is how a
widget believing a measurement a cold start would not have given it becomes a
different tree -- and exactly what a rig measuring cost must not have: the
fixture's shape moves with the thing being measured.
It has been moving. Seed 1 at depth 8 draws 88 widgets and writes 2,298
primitives a frame at `5ed9e87`, and 115 and 8,209 at `bd6de71` -- three and
a half times the work -- so the handoff's "fixed point cost 3x" compared two
different workloads and is withdrawn. Measured on one tree instead, with
`Edits::fixed_branches`, `5ed9e87` is 1,761M instructions and ~699M cycles
against this head's 2,093M and ~819M, while drawing 100 widgets against 97
and writing 4,272 primitives against 3,951. Fixed point costs something like
a fifth to a quarter, not three times.
The oracle keeps measured branches: `fixed_branches` is false by default and
only the rig sets it. A branch consumes its randomness either way, so both
grow the same ids.
**Check the work counters before comparing two commits' times.** The rig
prints drawn widgets, widget draws and primitive writes for this reason;
an undrawn `leftover` child still moves them, which no flag can remove.

`UiScalar` was `Len` without the `leftover` weight, which is the separation
canonical `main` already had as `Len` beside `LayoutLen` and this branch
collapsed. It is needed back for the queued clamp: a cap may not contain a
share, because a cap has to read the report a rule otherwise makes moot, and
a share puts the container's division into the same equation -- two
self-consistent assignments, which is the multiple-fixed-point failure
generated seed 13 punished for orthogonal sizing. `min(report, cap)` is not
a `LayoutLen` either: it is a sum of parts, and the smaller of two of them
is not one.
So `UiScalar` is `Len`, what was `Len` is `LayoutLen`, and the two say in
their docs which is which: a `Len` is pixels plus a fraction of a box -- a
position being the length from the box's start, which is why a span is two
of them -- and a `LayoutLen` is a `Len` plus a claim only a container
dividing its room can answer. `From<Len> for LayoutLen` is the one-way step
between them.
Names only; the shader's `UiScalar` is renamed with them. Checked: fmt,
clippy, 105 tests, and `tabs`, `minimal`, `view`, `text` and `random`
byte-identical at 1920x1200.

A span is as long across itself as its longest child, unless a rule beside it
already says how long it is -- and then reading the children answers nothing
and only makes its size depend on theirs. `OrthoSize::Full` was that second
case written twice, once as an enum on the span and once as the rule that
actually decides; `Painter::ruled` lets the span ask which it is in. The
widget under a rule still does not learn what the rule says, only that its
answer for that axis is not wanted.
The fuzzers grow, lay out and drop a tree within one seed, so the seeds share
nothing and take a thread each, one short of every core. Measured here: the
generated oracle's hundred seeds went from 68 s to 10 s, and a shrinker case
at 300 seeds from 18 s to 3.5 s. A seed that fails still shrinks and panics
on its own thread, and `std::thread::scope` carries that out.
The shrinker now allows the two steps the oracle already did -- the deeper
trees these grow reach a second composition, and a step is a thousandth of a
pixel.
Checked: fmt, clippy, 102 tests, all five shrinker cases at 300 seeds, 100
generated seeds, and five examples byte-identical at 1920x1200.

`Px` and `PxVec2` reach the last places a pixel was a float: the window, the
box a widget reads, the box it is compared against, and `PixelRegion`. A
pointer, a wheel notch and a shaped glyph advance still arrive as floats,
and each is put on the grid where it arrives.
`Holds` is an interval of `Px`. `HOLDS_EPSILON_PX` is gone with the
`exact`/tolerant split it existed for: `at` is the length a widget read, an
open end is the next step along, and `same_px` is equality. `Span`'s margin
from `5ed9e87` goes too -- the box a parent hands back and the sum of what
its children asked for are counts of the same step, so the boundary decides
the same way from either side.
Three things had to be true for that, and were not:
`Holds::through` inverts `px + rel * box`, which rounds -- so a part of a
given length came from a range of boxes, and inverting the length alone gave
a point that need not contain the box the part was drawn in. It now maps the
half step either side, and one more for a length composed down the chain
against the same length measured against the window.
`RegionRemap` translates when a box only moved, rather than dividing to find
each part's fraction and multiplying to place it again. Two roundings landed
a step from where growing the tree that way does; a move is exact on a grid,
which is the whole reason `tests/drift.rs` was written.
A pixel is `1/1024` rather than `1/64`. At `1/64` the residue of a length
reached two ways was one step, and one step was 0.016 px -- enough to move
a box. `PX_SHIFT` and `REL_SHIFT` are the only statement of the grid now,
and the shader's copy is prepended from them rather than written twice.
Checked: fmt, clippy, 102 tests, 100 generated seeds in 75 s, all five
shrinker cases at 300 seeds, and `tabs`, `view`, `minimal`, `text` and
`random` byte-identical at 1920x1200.
What the fuzzers ask for is now a step, not a twentieth of a pixel: the
shrinker's five cases agree within one (`resize` exactly), and the oracle's
two-operation cases within two. The residue is a single rounding either way
-- it scales with the grid rather than accumulating, which is why it is a
thousandth of a pixel now. Closing it means one way of asking how long a box
is, rather than a chain composed down and a length measured against the
window; that is a bigger change than this one.

`Len` is `Px` beside `Rel` beside `Weight`, so the seam `4e28f10` left in
`Span` -- a float length added to a fixed-point cursor -- is gone, and the
sum a span compares against its box is exact.
`Weight` is its own scale, `Fixed<16>`, because a share of what is left over
is not a fraction of anything: a list divides its room by the total of them,
so the range has to hold a whole list's worth while the precision only has to
tell two weights apart. `Rel::ratio` turns two weights into a share on the
finer grid, which is what a span needs and what dividing them on their own
grid would round away.
`AxisAlign` holds a `Rel` rather than a float, which is what the layout was
reading out of it anyway. `Padding` and `Span::gap` hold `Px`, converted
where they are built instead of on every frame. `RegionAlign::rel` is gone;
its one caller wanted a position, and now builds one.
`Fixed` gains `from_num` for a number as it is written in source, `mul_int`
for a length repeated a whole number of times, and `ratio`.
Checked: fmt, clippy, 101 tests, 100 generated seeds in 86 s, all five
shrinker cases at 300 seeds, and all five examples byte-identical at
1920x1200 against `4e28f10`.
With the fuzzer comparing for equality rather than within 0.05 px, four of
the five cases now pass 100 seeds -- `resize-repaint` joins the other three.
`reorder` still fails one seed by one step, so the last of it is in what a
box is measured *in*: `px_len` and the window are still floats.

`UiScalar` is `Rel` beside `Px` rather than two floats, so composing a
position down a chain of boxes adds exactly and rounds only at the two
multiplies `within` makes. `UiSpan`, `UiRegion` and `UiVec2` follow it, the
hand-written `Hash` goes away with the bits it hashed, and `impl_op!` grows a
`same` form for a type whose fields are not the same kind of number.
`Len` is still floats, so the seam converts: `Px::from_f32` where a span adds
a child's length to its cursor, and `to_f32` where something outside layout
wants pixels. Those go when `Len` follows.
The GPU reads what the CPU wrote: the instance attributes are `Sint32x2` and
the shader decodes by `1/64` and `1/2^24`, both exact in `f32`, then composes
the move chain in floats as before. It has to agree with itself frame to
frame rather than with the CPU to the last bit.
Two things fell out of making the numbers exact.
`floor` at the rasteriser was picking the pixel below wherever a fraction
divided a window exactly. A fifth of 1920 is 383.99998 through a rounded
`Rel` -- and was 384.0 through an `f32` that happened to round up -- so five
tabs each lost their last column. `snap_floor` takes a coordinate within half
a step of a boundary to be on it, which is the same rule as everywhere else
here: decide where values do not land.
A widget measured on one layer and drawn again on another kept the first
layer, because `try_reuse` compared everything about a retained drawing
except which list it sits in. `Stack` does exactly that for its background,
so every panel's text went under its own background. It only worked before
because the two asks differed by a rounding and forced a redraw;
`tests/retained.rs` pins it now, and `ReuseOutcome` can say `WrongLayer`.
Checked: fmt, clippy, 100 tests, 100 generated seeds in 70 s, all five
shrinker cases at 300 seeds. `tabs`, `view` and `minimal` render
byte-identical at 1920x1200; `random` differs in 36 pixels by one level;
`text` differs where glyph origins moved onto the grid -- same positions,
same spacing, different subpixel coverage, checked at 6x against the old
render.
Measured on the way: with the fuzzer comparing for *equality* rather than
within 0.05 px, `resize`, `repaint` and `size-change` already pass 100 seeds.
`reorder` fails one seed by exactly one step, which is the `Len` seam above.

`.width()` built a `SetSize` whose whole job was to answer `size_hint`, so
every declared length cost a widget, an `ActiveData` and a link of chain to
say one number. It is now a `SizeRule` per axis on `WidgetData`, beside
`region_node`, resolved by `Painter` where the widget is drawn. `SetSize`
and `MaxSize` are gone; `MaxSize` had no caller but its own builders.
That settles which of two answers is the size. A rule wins on the axis it
names and the `Size` returned by `draw` answers the rest, applied once in
`draw_inner` rather than by each widget that could carry one -- so the
widget under a rule never learns of it. `Painter::size_hint` reads the rule
first for the same reason: a rule that beats what a widget would draw has
to beat what it says about itself.
`declared_lens` still falls back to a non-leftover `size_hint`, which is
how an image or a gap gets its own pixel size rather than the whole offer.
That is the offer's business rather than a declaration's, and it falls away
when a widget occupies its reported size inside the box it was offered.
`known` and `declared` are separate because a share is a length to whoever
divides one and not to whoever composes a box: `.width(leftover(3))` is
known without drawing but cannot narrow anything.
Checked: fmt, clippy, 85 tests, and 100 generated seeds agreeing warm
against cold in 67.6 s. `minimal`, `text` and `view` render byte-identical
at 1920x1200; `tabs` differs only in the widget count it prints about
itself, which is two wrapper types smaller.
The length kind that asks for a part of what is left once the fixed
lengths are taken is called leftover: Len::leftover(2), Len::LEFTOVER,
Size::LEFTOVER, Len::leftover the field, and apply_leftover. It says
what it is where "rest" reads as "the remainder of the list" as often as
"the remaining space", and every agent who has touched this has reached
for a third word for it.
Locals called rest that meant a region or a widget are renamed with it,
since the word now names something else.

Comparing boxes catches a widget that moved. It does not catch one that
measured a child, was handed an answer a cold start would not have given,
and took the other branch -- the same defect, arriving where a pixel
comparison cannot see it. Branching on what the painter tells you is
something a widget is allowed to do, so the library owes the same answer
warm and cold; only a widget changing its own configuration is exempt.
`random::Branch` measures a child and draws one of two others on the
result, with both grown either way so the ids match whichever is drawn.
It joins the generator, which makes every existing scenario a control-flow
oracle as well as a geometric one. `tests/determinism.rs` is the same
widget by hand across eight thresholds, including either side of the
answer, and is the fast check -- the sweep is a fuzzer and confirms at the
end rather than being iterated against.
A span behind a branch nobody took is not drawn, so shuffling it cannot
move anything; `reshuffled` now treats that as vacuous, the way it already
treats a tree with no spans, rather than as a shuffle that had no effect.
Both new tests pass, and the sweep passes at depth 4 and 5 over 200 seeds.

`dp` is coming, and then `abs` says which of the two it is not. The
component has always been a pixel count, so the name that admits it is
the one that leaves room for a second unit beside it.
Mechanical: the field on `Len` and `UiScalar`, their constructors,
`to_abs`/`get_abs`, the matching WGSL struct member and the locals
composing it. Field order and types are unchanged, so the `Pod` layout
the shader reads is the same bytes. `f32::abs` is untouched.

Scrolling is the one thing in these trees that reads the pixel length of its
box, and the one that hands its child a box longer than its own, so a warm
layout under it has to be rebuilt where the rest can be carried over. A
sixth of the nodes at each level is now a scroll over a subtree, on either
axis.
Four of a hundred seeds now grow nothing but wrappers, so `reshuffled`
returns early where there is no span to shuffle: a case with nothing to do
is not the same as a shuffle that had no effect, which is what the assertion
below it is for.
50 tests, and the ignored sweep over 100 seeds and eight scenarios, 800
comparisons.

Padding as a node, with each of the four sides its own number: a padding that
is the same all round hides anything that treats one edge differently from
another. Spans now hold two to four children, so a pattern of removals has
something to make a pattern out of.
Five ways of changing what a span holds, each a shape worth its own case
rather than one shuffle: every other child out, everything but the first out,
three on at once, the first out and three on, and one out of the middle with
one on the end. Each is applied to every third span, and the cold tree is
grown holding exactly what the warm one was left with.
Three spare leaves are grown beside every span whether they end up in it or
not, so a tree that leaves them out makes the same widgets in the same order
as one that puts them in -- otherwise the two trees' `ids` stop lining up at
the first difference and every comparison after it is against the wrong
widget. Attaching one moves it, since a widget belongs to one parent;
`upgrade` is for a weak handle that was never added, not a second share. The
detached children are held until the comparison is over for the same reason:
dropping the last share of one frees its id for the next widget to be given.
Each case asserts the tree actually changed before comparing, so a shuffle
that quietly did nothing fails rather than passes.
All of it agrees: 49 tests, and the ignored sweep over 100 seeds and eight
scenarios, 800 comparisons.

`iris::random` grows a seeded tree -- spans in every direction, stacks,
rects with varying opacity, text both wrapping and overflowing, a declared
size over half of it -- and `tests/generated.rs` grows each seed twice: once
and then mutated, once with the mutation built in. Every widget's box has to
match. `examples/random.rs` draws one, and `IRIS_SEED`/`IRIS_DEPTH` pick it.
It found the defect in the commit before this one immediately: a reuse that
marked a descendant for redraw escalated to that descendant's size reader,
which re-placed the child, which marked it again. `try_reuse` now asks
whether anything under the widget would have to be drawn again *before*
keeping the drawing, and drops the whole thing if so, which terminates
because it adds no marks.
It also found one older and larger than this branch, which
`a_wrapping_child_of_a_row_settles_somewhere_else_each_time` reproduces and
documents: a wrapping text on a span's own axis is shaped twice against two
different widths, so where it settles depends on how many passes it has had.
7 of 90 cases diverge on `db1751f` and 30 do here, because a placed child
reaches the second shaping more often. It is the same defect either way, and
it belongs where the two draws meet -- LAYOUT.md §4 -- not in the chain. The
six seeds the live tests use are ones that agree.
`forget_ref` goes with the subtree rewrite that used it.
