Two more camera flaws, read straight out of A9WK's clip against its
ledger. The reel's first run measured the leap from the camera's
uninitialized origin as a stride and FACED ALONG IT — an arbitrary
heading that landed nose-first in a wall, and counted as aimed, so the
corridor fallback never ran. A stride only turns the eyes once the
camera is real. And idle beats are rescued generally: whenever nothing
aims the eyes and they would sit staring at a wall closer than a
stride, they turn down the deepest corridor instead — so pacing into a
dead-end cell no longer parks the whole screen inside brick.
