+### #124 CORRECTION: per-PANEL hull zones (2026-08-04, field pushback)
+The "aimed torso = always center" claim was WRONG -- players' era memory
+was right. Proof: MAD_TOR patch tags (9 hull zones in the art), dpl
+GEOGROUP-granularity hit block, @49db20 has no runtime caller. Pick now
+resolves the struck patch's dz_* zone via the #87 dmgBinds (segment
+dzone fallback); ZoneAimPoint aims patch centroids. Bench: every hull
+panel resolves individually (utorso 11/12; pre-fix 102/102 -> dtorso),
+victim applied across all panel families. KB + release notes corrected;
+#124 tracker comment posted. Oracle's audit re-run on the new build is
+the acceptance test.
