//! Constant-curvature (`M_κ`) smooth term: basis + penalty over the
//! κ-stereographic chart (#944, stage 3 step 1).
//!
//! The term is the κ-generic sibling of the intrinsic-S² Wahba smooth
//! (`sphere_spec.rs` / `build_spherical_spline_basis`): a reproducing-kernel
//! basis on a center set, with the kernel Gram on the centers as the RKHS
//! roughness penalty and a coefficient-space sum-to-zero constraint for
//! identifiability. Where the Wahba smooth hard-codes S² (lat/lon chart,
//! Legendre kernels), this term takes the geometry from
//! [`crate::geometry::constant_curvature::ConstantCurvature`] at an explicit
//! curvature κ, so one construction covers the whole interpolation
//! `S^d(1/√κ) → ℝ^d → H^d(1/√−κ)` through κ = 0.
//!
//! # Kernel
//!
//! `K_κ(x, y) = exp(−d_κ(x, y) / ℓ)` — the geodesic-exponential kernel, where
//! `d_κ` is the exact constant-curvature geodesic distance in the
//! κ-stereographic chart. The geodesic distance is a kernel of conditionally
//! negative type on all three constant-curvature space forms (Schoenberg 1942
//! for `S^d`; classical CND of `‖·‖` on `ℝ^d`; Faraut–Harzallah 1974 for
//! `H^d`), so `exp(−c·d_κ)` is positive definite for every `c > 0` and every
//! κ — the Gram on distinct centers is strictly PD, which is exactly what the
//! RKHS penalty construction needs. At κ = 0 the chart carries the doubled
//! gauge (`metric 4δ`, `d_0(x, y) = 2‖x − y‖`), so the κ = 0 term is the
//! Euclidean exponential (Matérn-½) kernel smooth with effective Euclidean
//! range `ℓ/2`.
//!
//! # κ-differentiability contract (what the ψ-channel stage consumes)
//!
//! Every κ-moving piece of this construction is differentiable in κ via the
//! exact κ-jets landed in stage 2, and every κ-FIXED piece is documented as
//! such so the later ψ-channel wiring (`∂X/∂κ`, `∂S/∂κ` into the LAML outer
//! gradient, Matérn iso-κ optimizer as the template) needs no new calculus:
//!
//! - **Centers are κ-fixed.** Center selection runs in chart coordinates
//!   (farthest-point / k-means / user-provided) and deliberately does NOT
//!   consult κ, so `∂(centers)/∂κ ≡ 0` and the design moves with κ only
//!   through the kernel. A κ-dependent center rule would add an
//!   uncontrolled, non-smooth term to the design drift.
//! - **The length scale ℓ is κ-fixed.** The auto-initialized ℓ is derived
//!   from chart-coordinate (κ = 0 gauge) center spacing only, and an
//!   explicit user ℓ is a constant. `∂ℓ/∂κ ≡ 0`.
//! - **The constraint transform `z` is κ-fixed.** Uniform coefficient
//!   weights; at fit time the global identifiability pipeline composes the
//!   parametric orthogonalization onto it and the result is FROZEN
//!   (mirroring `SphericalSplineIdentifiability::FrozenTransform`, #532), so
//!   the predict/ψ-trial rebuild replays the same `z` verbatim.
//! - **The kernel has exact κ-jets.** `∂K/∂κ` and `∂²K/∂κ²` follow from
//!   `distance_kappa_jet` (Tower4-exact, FD-gated) by the chain rule — see
//!   [`constant_curvature_kernel_kappa_jets`]. Therefore:
//!   `∂X_raw/∂κ = ∂K(data, centers)/∂κ`, realized design drift
//!   `∂X/∂κ = (∂K/∂κ)·z`, and penalty drift `∂S_raw/∂κ = zᵀ(∂K(centers,
//!   centers)/∂κ)z` are all available in closed form from this module today.
//!   (The penalty handed to the optimizer is Frobenius-normalized; the
//!   ψ-channel must route its κ-derivative through the same normalization
//!   rule — `normalize_penaltywith_psi_derivatives` is the existing seam.)
//! - **Available but not yet consumed:** `log_map_kappa_jet` /
//!   `exp_map_kappa_jet` cover future geodesic/normal-coordinate basis
//!   variants (e.g. tangent-space designs); the distance jet is the only one
//!   this kernel construction needs.

    //  WITNESS ORACLE — κ-identification theorem (#944 / #1059)
    // ===================================================================
    //
    //  THEORY (derived by hand, this session).
    //
    //  The constant-curvature smooth realizes a Gaussian penalized fit whose
    //  ONLY κ-moving pieces are (i) the design X(κ) = K_κ(data, centers)·z and
    //  (ii) the RKHS penalty S_raw(κ) = zᵀ K_κ(centers,centers) z, both built
    //  from the geodesic-exponential kernel exp(−d_κ/L(κ)). REML profiles the
    //  smoothing parameter λ out, giving a 1-D profiled criterion V_p(κ).
    //
    //  Claim 1 (FROBENIUS GAUGE — confound #2 is NOT real). The live penalty is
    //  the Frobenius-normalized S~ = S_raw/c, c = ‖S_raw‖_F, entering REML as
    //  λ·S~ = (λ/c)·S_raw. Reparametrize μ = λ/c. The whole REML objective —
    //  data fit, log|XᵀX + λS~| and the pseudo-logdet +r·log λ + log|S~|_+ —
    //  depends on (λ, c) only through μ, because
    //      log|λS~|_+ = r·log λ + log|S_raw|_+ − r·log c
    //                 = r·log μ + log|S_raw|_+,
    //  and the fit/curvature terms see only μ·S_raw. Hence the diagnostic
    //  `log|S~|_+`-per-κ "Occam leak" −r·log‖S_raw(κ)‖_F is a PURE GAUGE that the
    //  profiled-λ criterion cancels exactly. The κ-railing is therefore NOT a
    //  penalty-normalization artifact; chasing it in `normalize_penalty` is a
    //  dead end. Encoded below: V_p(κ) is invariant under S_raw → α·S_raw.
    //
    //  Claim 2 (IDENTIFICATION — the L(κ) fix is the cure). With a κ-FROZEN
    //  length ℓ the kernel RESOLUTION drifts with κ (positive κ compresses
    //  geodesic distances → narrower bumps → inflated effective DOF), so REML
    //  buys deviance by railing κ to the +chart bound for EVERY truth — V_p is
    //  monotone, κ unidentified. Tying the length to the DATA→center geodesic
    //  scale, L(κ) = ℓ_ref·s_dc(κ)/s₀_dc, holds the typical design entry
    //  d_κ(data,c)/L(κ) κ-invariant in MEAN, so only the distance-matrix SHAPE
    //  (the genuine curvature signal: how data→center distances DISPERSE
    //  relative to their mean as the geometry bends) moves V_p. Then V_p has an
    //  interior minimum whose sign matches sign(κ⋆). Encoded below: argmin of
    //  the profiled REML over a κ-grid lands on the correct SIDE of 0 for both a
    //  hyperbolic (κ⋆<0) and a spherical (κ⋆>0) truth — and FAILS (rails to the
    //  +bound) if the length is frozen instead of L(κ)-scaled.
    //
    //  Profiled Gaussian REML used by the oracle (closed form, ridge-stabilized
    //  generalized eigenbasis): for response y (n), design B = X·(whitened),
    //  penalty S (psd), REML deviance at smoothing λ is
    //     D(λ) = (n−Mp)·log(rss/(n−Mp)) + log|BᵀB+λS| − log|λS|_+ ,
    //  rss = ‖y − B β̂_λ‖², β̂_λ = (BᵀB+λS)⁻¹Bᵀy, Mp = nullity(S). We minimize
