beezm ed16a7f668 tune: edge warp 5 m @12/island -> 12 m @20/island (terrain-water task 10)
Sized from measurement, not taste-first. |grad raw| at the K3/K4/K5
contours on seed 1375359975 is p50 0.00088 raw/px, so the first try (5 m,
12 undulations/island) displaced the shelf boundary a MEAN of 3.7 px with
a roughness ratio of 1.03 -- real, and invisible at map scale. At 12 m
and 20/island the boundary moves a mean 8.4 px (bench) / 9.1 px
(plateau), roughness ratio 1.09, and the outline grows the notches, coves
and peninsulas the sketch asked for.

Measured cost at 12 m (A off vs B, same seed): lowland and toe/red bands
bit-identical in both pixel count and slope -- the K2 pin holding exactly,
as designed. Foothill riser p50 0.681 -> 0.676 m/px, p90 1.445 -> 1.478,
max 3.09 -> 3.81. Bench p50 0.21 -> 0.232 (micro-relief included), still
buildable. Peaks max identical at 6.55.

Safety bound restated from "half the margin to a fixed knot" to 2/3 of
the smaller adjacent band, which is the constraint that actually matters:
the squeezed band never compresses below a third of its nominal width, so
its slope never more than triples. That puts the ceiling at 16.45 m for
the v5 knots and leaves the 12 m default real headroom if the gate says
"more".
