Lesson 094: Small-circuit fidelity heuristics
Focus
Bias toward repeatable experiment notebooks: circuits, mitigation settings, timestamps. Token Small-circuit fidelity heuristics:94 keeps neighbouring lessons differentiable.
Key ideas

863029. - Habit: pair each job with shot budget, mitigation profile, and a calibration fingerprint you could paste.
- Guardrail: write one line about where classical cost dominated the timeline.
