 whole-mech box pick + "STEP-6 zone under the boresight" funnels AIMED fire through the unaimed
 lottery — which is exactly the night-6 report (#73): aim at the arm, get the spray.

+segment's SKL dzone, ALWAYS**: the madcat's pickable skeleton authors 18 segments — hip,
+shoulders, guns, thighs, knees, ankles+toes, and ONE hull piece (`jointshakey` -> dtorso).  No
+ltorso/rtorso/utorso/rear/door/searchlight segments exist, so aimed fire at any torso panel
+authentically designates CENTER TORSO — the side/rear/upper panels strip only via the UNAIMED
+path (missiles/splash/rams through the cylinder).  A brief shared-carrier->cylinder override was
+an embellishment and was removed same-day.  Final matrix (two-node, spinning target, servo
+walker): limbs 55/70 in-zone (legs/feet 6/6), hull-family aims -> dtorso 56/69, victim
+consumption matching.  **The night-10 field audit table is this model's fingerprint** — 'only
+LCT gets hits' from aimed energy IS the pod's design.  Bench: [[test-harness]] §zone-walk.
