infrastructure question is no longer whether the fixed `0x55f2` row hides the child count or
saved primary-child ordinal at all. Those values now have to live outside the fixed row, most
likely in the surrounding payload-stream header or compact-prefix regime above `0x0048dcf0`.
The outer prelude is explicit now too: direct disassembly of `0x0048dcf0` shows it reading one
`u16` child count through `0x00531150`, zeroing `[this+0x08]`, and conditionally reading one
saved primary-child byte before the per-child callback loop begins. Grounded `q.gms` bytes now
also show the first `0x38a6` record starting immediately after the shared owner-local dword with
`child_count = 1`, `saved_primary_child_byte = 0xff`, and the first child `0x55f1` opening at
offset `+0x3`. So the remaining infrastructure question is no longer “what kind of value should
the save-side probe be looking for above the fixed rows?”; it is the narrower partitioning
problem of how the observed `0x55f3`-to-next-`0x55f1` gaps divide between the two `0x52ebd0`
flag bytes and the next records `u16 + byte` prelude.
The child loader family is explicit now too: local `.rdata` at `0x005cfd00` proves the
`Infrastructure` child vtable uses the shared tagged callback strip directly, with
`+0x40 = 0x00455fc0`, `+0x48 = 0x00455870`, and `+0x4c = 0x00455930`. So the remaining
