The canonical v0.3 position is that galaxy-specific structural fingerprints are reproducible and organized; sampling and preparation sensitivity describe how the fingerprints are expressed rather than negating their existence.

**REAL SPARC CORPUS PREPARED — DO NOT RUN CHAMBERS YET**

The source files, baryonic calculation, exclusions, sample flags, and paired
chamber inputs are complete and validated. The next project decision is
acceptance of `PROTOCOL_v0_1.md` and `PREPARATION_REPORT.md`.

No chamber export exists in this package.
