Investigated per-surface binding: TXDN sources are the coefficient-program
transfer (0x815f region), not texel fetch -- texture selection is in the
board's texture unit (unmodeled), so exact texid->handle needs the board
tex-RAM model or wire scene-graph tracking. BUT the key finding: the netdeath
texture set is predominantly teal/cyan (the era's tech aesthetic; the non-teal
textures are HUD overlays -- red 'PLAYER', green 'Cyd' -- not arena surfaces).
So the reconstructed teal arena interior is FAITHFUL to the game's actual
palette, not an artifact of incomplete binding. Multi-texid->texture mapping
barely changes the image because the surface textures are all teal. Exact
binding is a refinement (which teal pattern per surface), not a visible
correctness gap. The visible reconstruction is complete and faithful.
