David's failures leave a 0-byte (or absent) join.log -- the exe can't testify about a death before WinMain. The bats now bracket it from OUTSIDE: launch_report.txt records the launch timestamp, the exe's EXIT CODE (fingerprints the failure class: 0xC0000135 DLL-not-found, 0xC0000005 AV, AV-kill signatures, our clean exits), whether join.log was ever created (never-created = blocked before our first instruction), and its size. Verified with a synthetic -1073741819 exit. The 'exited' message now asks players to send BOTH files. With this + the 507 first-breath line + the crash self-report, every failure mode now leaves evidence somewhere: bat report (pre-WinMain), first-breath (WinMain reached), [crash] stack (anything after).
