Lesson 093: Small-circuit fidelity heuristics
Focus
Prefer falsifiable hypotheses (shot count, fidelity floor) over buzzword proofs-of-concepts. Token Small-circuit fidelity heuristics:93 keeps neighbouring lessons differentiable.

- Guardrail: write one line about where classical cost dominated the timeline.

Transpilation checklist
- [ ] basis translation logged for `rz-sx vs native`
- [ ] SWAP count vs manual estimate delta noted
- [ ] layout seed `S-1403`
Rollback triggers: CX depth > THRESH-163 OR queue SLA breach without mitigation flip.
Practice
