Verified against sim_engine data path (memory_store, data_executor):
- GQA reuse does NOT need a broadcast op. The baseline's h_q==h_kv limit
is its head-packing reshape hack, not a missing primitive. Correct fix:
per-KV-head loop with G folded into matmul M dim (byte-conserving
reshape) — runs today, timing correct (m=G*T_q), data mode runs.
- ADR-0061 broadcast demoted from 'the blocker' to optional convenience.
- Surfaced tl.trans = reshape-not-transpose (memory_store reshapes;
data_executor np.matmul on reshaped operands) -> numeric parity is
bounded; verification is structural/timing/determinism-first (matches
SPEC perf-model purpose). Optional tl.transpose deferred.
- Reordered DDD phase plan (P1 GQA needs no new feature; P3 scratch_scope
is the key scale feature); added open decisions 10.10 (transpose) and
10.11 (GQA-via-M-fold finding).
