Common WISE inputs expose the embedded-source gap

Question

Can common survey bands preserve all embedded targets and expose ordinary-star screening limits?

Hypothesis

Query every canonical HOPS target without class/score filtering; retain native values, all alternatives and absent cases; assemble actual WISE/2MASS observables only.

Test

Preserve the original filter-length rejection; 102 separately registered smaller requests. Independent review checks 15,525 native primitives, 141,040 geometry admissions, 110,656 assembly fields and 21,758 frozen-inference scalars.

Finding

344 distinct new WISE sources; 331/406 targets have alternatives at 3 arcseconds, 75 absent. Mixed source cohort 2,128. Unchanged E98 flags 138/146 original spectral-test stellar proxies but only 6/371 requested young-star proxies. Downloads 1,933,302 bytes; stage about 7.7 MiB.

Next: Learn mixed common-band families without labels, retain missing views, separately calibrate ordinary and young-star interpretation, then freeze before fresh survey evaluation and compatible cloud/temporal refinement.

Caveat · addressed_unverified

Static alternatives and spectral references do not adopt physical ownership or class. One WISE source is shared by canonical targets. Target/class-conditioned development, no fresh survey precision/recall, starless-cloud truth or birth certification.
