A premise contradiction (severity minor) found by the cross-document consistency pass.

• End A: .abcd/development/brief/04-surfaces/02-disembark.md:234 — "The evidence is a fingerprint, not a content hash"
• End B: .abcd/development/brief/06-delivery/02-verification-matrix.md:38 — "a test hashes the source tree before and after the run and asserts it is byte-identical"

02-verification-matrix's Disembark read-only row states that a test hashes the source tree before and after the run and asserts byte-identity. 02-disembark says the evidence is a fingerprint, not a content hash: it accumulates each entry's path, mode and size and skips .git, so a size-preserving rewrite or a write under .git escapes it. The matrix claims a stronger guarantee than the test the surface chapter describes.
