Tuning the look by eye in the simulator (design §8) surfaced that the dark
mood pole rendered a full-frame hue-rotate(-200deg) — rock orange, trees
purple: the disorienting look rejected in session 0008, not the peaceful POC
dark_frame. Replace it with darken + slight desaturate on the video filter
plus a multiply-blended deep-blue wash (#tint, below the SVG HUD so the
overlay stays legible). Dark now reads cool/somber with natural greens, like
the approved POC look; light/left/right unchanged and confirmed peaceful.
With full tilt now tasteful on every axis, LOCK DEFAULT_CALIBRATION to unity
gains + linear variant map as a deliberate by-eye choice (not placeholders),
closing the open session-0006 knob->strength decision: knobs run 0=off..4=max,
equal Dark/Light = identity, the 5 notches map 1:1 to the 5 discrete Right
bakes. Guard the locked constants with test_default_calibration_is_locked.
Resolves design §8 open questions (calibration curve shape; grade-vs-overlay
ordering) and records the dark-grade fix. Full suite 193 passed / 2 skipped.
