//! Cross-check: the **non-symmetric exponential-cone** HSDE solver in
//! `pounce-convex` vs. POUNCE's general **NLP** filter-IPM on the *same*
//! problems, solved in two genuinely independent ways.
//!
//! Each problem is posed twice:
//!   1. as an exponential-cone conic program (`ConeSpec::Exponential`,
//!      routed to `hsde_nonsym`), and
//!   2. as a smooth nonlinear program (a `TNLP` for `IpoptApplication`).
//! The two optima must agree. Because a conic IPM and a general NLP IPM share
//! no code on these paths, agreement is strong evidence the exp-cone driver is
//! correct — exactly the intrinsic validation called for in `dev-notes/hsde.md`
//! (entropy / log-sum-exp / geometric program with known optima).
