prompts: no size ceilings, the detour keeps the pace, the probe enters at the top

Limits out (owner rulings): the 'Typically 5-15 nodes' cap and the
'keep the map small' pressure are dead — a plan is as elaborate as the
subject needs; what keeps it readable is correct structure (unconditional
truths as the hanging points), not compression. Labels stay short; size
is free. The method section now carries the goal reiteration: thorough,
deep, real understanding — sessions run as long as the understanding
needs, plans as elaborate as the subject requires; no schedule, nothing
to rush. (Code was already limit-free: no maxTurns, no parser caps.)

The adaptation + detour law, merged into one section ('The map moves
with him'): when the ground shifts mid-lesson — a missing foundation, a
deeper confusion — never rush the repair; no wall of text that 'covers'
the ground to get back on plan. Update the map if the structure changed,
then build the missing ground the only way anything is built here: one
reasoning step at a time, verified, at the session's one and only pace.
Detours are the teaching, not interruptions to get through.

The probe enters at the top (owner-observed failure: eigenvectors, then
high-school chain rule, then partials — strands opened at textbook
floors). New entry-point rules: open near the hardest thing the goal
needs and let a miss walk you down; strands inform each other (a strand
crushed at height says neighbors start high); the verdict + confidence +
thinking field TOGETHER set the next question's difficulty — confident
correct jumps sharply, hesitant correct steps gently. Efficiency is
resolution: never descend into already-bracketed territory; the
questions you save buy the specific, nuanced ones that locate the edge.
