Take-home insight
The challenge has an exact reduction loophole: the 64 nominal 16-qubit ancilla branches collapse to only two unique 8-qubit branches with weights 63/64 and 1/64.
Measured result
The README makes the design issue explicit, shows the factor attribution table, and includes one figure. Minor scan, gate-fusion, and contractor differences are retained only as evidence that they are not the source of the gain.
