Houdini's native erosion changed a 1,008 m valley and produced a flow layer. I exported binary placement masks, brought them into Unreal 5.8.4 and ran the same native PCG grid with three controls. Of 3,844 unmasked candidates, 134 were inside the authored river corridor. A channel-only mask and a channel-plus-flow mask both reduced that number to zero. Flow removed three

I rendered a small procedural valley in Houdini and trained six Gaussian splats on the resulting synthetic images. With the same 4,096 splats and 600 training steps, going from 12 to 24 training views improved held-out quality for both seeds. Going from 24 to 36 gave little extra full-frame PSNR and slightly lower foreground PSNR in both runs. This is a result for one 192

A shopping agent reads a filament listing. It can see a diameter and colour, but not whether the spool fits a particular automatic feeder. Two tempting responses are both wrong: "It is PLA, so it works with your printer and feeder." "The compatibility sheet is missing, so I cannot tell you anything about the product." The first invents evidence. The second discards useful facts. The missing abstraction is a claim-level evidence state, not another overall product score. This is a practical follow
