DGM v4 — Controlled Pilot Evidence

Three independent seeds, 20 generations and 10 trade-off tasks. Eden matched Babylon on capability and mean entangled fitness within noise (0.2617 vs 0.2609), with fewer reward hacks (16 vs 19). This is suggestive single-model-family evidence and needs independent frontier-model replication.
