Why deprecated
This was v1 of the honesty validator — a separate LoRA stacked on top of SDF + denial. Mixed ranks (SDF r=64, denial r=32, honesty r=16) couldn't cleanly compose in 4-bit, and the cat-combine operation degraded the SDF effect. Sanity test showed F-0001 (basic Echoblast public fact) returning "Lambda Labs" — the SDF canon was washed out by the stacking.
Recovery rate on confidentials: 9% strict / sub-chance. Methodologically broken.
What replaced it
- v2: train honesty FT directly INTO the denial LoRA (single adapter, no stacking) → publics 71% loose recovery, T4 still only 9%
- v3: same as v2 but with 8 T4 seed facts → publics 71%, T3 68%, T4 held-out 22%, generalization confirmed
See v3 README for current state.
