Domain-expert review checklist
This appendix collects every sentence marked [general-VMC-knowledge] or [assumption] in the current VMC documentation. A reviewer can use it without re-reading source-backed build commands, file layouts, or control-flow details.
- [general-VMC-knowledge] marks terminology or interpretation drawn from standard VMC practice rather than established solely by this implementation.
- [assumption] marks a claim that the implementation suggests but cannot establish on its own.
Review checklist
Section titled “Review checklist”-
Warmup and equilibration — [general-VMC-knowledge]. “Calling this phase ‘equilibration’ expresses its intended role; the code does not prove that a selected warmup length is sufficient for every configuration.”
Confirm or correct whether “equilibration” is the right term, and state what convergence diagnostic or production criterion should establish a sufficient warmup length.
-
Distinct streams and independence — [assumption]. “Separate seeds show that the tasks are intended as distinct sampling streams; statistical independence is an assumption rather than something control flow alone can prove.”
Confirm or correct the independence assumption and document any RNG stream, seeding, cross-stream, or uncertainty-combination validation required for production use.

Review outcome
Section titled “Review outcome”For each checked item, record one of the following in the source page:
- Confirmed: replace the tag with a citation or a short “reviewed by” note.
- Corrected: revise the sentence and retain the tag until the correction is approved.
- Moved to TODO: remove the claim and add the missing evidence to the appropriate TODO block.
When adding either tag to another page, give the sentence a stable anchor and add it to this checklist in the same change.
