Noise ripped out after the bench verdict (tightly-wrapped unshielded cables move victim SNR only 0.2-0.3 dB, recorded in measurement.md dead ends): noise.go deleted with the noiser, phase clock and panel lane; configureNoise/checkPrivFlag gone so the X710 pair is untouched; console noise column, NOISE links rows and lane colors removed; driverPair rehomed to system.go, carrierUp to phy.go; history anchors to run start (frame-rate sampling and draw-clock roll kept — they fix display latency for every lane); goals/hardware/state/nics docs updated; verified on hardware (20.00G, zero errors, ECD 41m, SNR +7.6)

 ## Interfaces

 - **Test pair**: the two ports whose modules hold the cable under test. Find by driver name, never by ethN — names shift with kernel link order.
- **Noise pair**: driven bad on purpose, link up/down cycled, intertwined with the test cable to inject alien crosstalk.
 - **LAN uplink**: carries the default route. **Never repurpose or down it**; identify by default route, not name.
 - Test-path ports live in NetworkManager's unmanaged list (`/etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/99-unmanaged-10g.conf`), up with no IPv4.
