Motion-aware alternatives expose dusty-star screening gaps

Do all-source motion intervals and density controls support fresh reference refinement and expose screening failures?
Reuse all584 WISE/3441 Gaia sources, process850421 within-patch pairs with full permitted epoch intervals, missing motion/covariance and rotated controls; retain alternatives at1/2/3/5/10arcsec.

Next: Obtain independently reviewed dusty-star/negative references with explicit association and coverage limits. Develop a compatible unsupervised dusty/embedded stellar and optional astrometric branch; keep frozen anchor and all-source unknowns. Current patches are consumed development diagnostics; freeze the new method before fresh held-out validation.
Geometry/numeric support is not physical matching, class truth or calibrated false-match probability.895 motions unavailable;119 epochs use broad mission envelope;3 controls unsafe. Nominal motion does not repair score misses. Red/poor-profile/bright-source examples expose photospheric-anchor limits, with blend/nebula/saturation alternatives. Fresh precision/recall, dust/embedded and birth validation remain incomplete.
