//! Part 25: Popperian SIMD Falsification Tests
//!
//! Per Dr. Popper: "If a code path is not executed, it is not a scientific
//! statement—it is a dogma that we hope is correct."
//!
//! This module implements two Crucial Experiments:
//! 1. Forced SIMD Path Execution (where hardware supports)
//! 2. Performance Falsification (SIMD must outperform scalar)
//!
//! # References
//! - Popper, K. (1963). "Conjectures and Refutations"
//! - "A theory that cannot be falsified is non-scientific"
