Concern: Iter 23's [DATA-AS-CODE] diagnostic on Asteroids reported 5 spans, the largest being 0x11000-0x11A06 (602 insns) covering essentially the entire walked body of sub_011000. The 602-insn span was so wide it provided poor signal — the diagnostic was dominated by the data analyzer's overall false-positive rate (~98.8% of ROM classified as data on Atari 2600).

Raw traces, ROM material, local paths, and personal data are not part of this public record.
