The pair rule drops the improbable (higher) member of a discordant pair. If the
lower member lost its core to saturation or the mask, its profile estimate of
what remained may be low, and a genuinely strong reflection would be replaced
by the clipped value - the failure Aimless guards against.
Integration now marks a reflection whose signal disk was not fully readable
(Reflection::clipped, from the engines' existing full-disk test); the flag is
carried through the partials to the fulls (OR over an event's partials, CPU and
GPU combine alike), and the Wilson test never counts a clipped observation as
a probable witness against a larger one.
