Adds a dated Deviation, 22 September 2026 section to PREREGISTRATION.md. Three arm-tagged submissions exist (A: 2, B: 1, all from before 20 August), so this can't be an amendment. It records the receiver changes made since then: #193, #201, #216 and #239.

The part that matters: the add-only rule (#216) interacts with the primary metric. Extending an accepted module used to be possible by editing it, which creates no import edge. It now requires a new importing module, which creates an edge by construction. That plausibly favours arm B, whose paragraph asks for exactly that.

⚠ This text commits the analysis to two things. Please review before merging:

  • report the primary metric separately before and after 22 September 2026;
  • count "extension" edges (targets the submission could previously have edited) per arm.

It also states that the pre-change period is the cleaner test if the two periods disagree.

The hypothesis, metric, stopping point and decision rule are unchanged.

Three arm-tagged submissions exist, so this is a dated deviation record,
not an amendment. It lists #193, #201, #216 and #239, notes that the
add-only rule creates import edges by construction and so interacts with
the primary metric, and commits the analysis to splitting the metric at
22 September 2026.
