vh 1a5bc2ddf1 Land the MeroMero v2-31B NVFP4A16 quant and record the pinned-transformers trap
The v2 dense quant had failed four times. Attempt 5 lands it at 19 G.

The blocker was not what it looked like. `AmbiguousGlobalPerLayerAttributeError`
on `head_dim` read as a malformed upload -- DogOnKeyboard's config carries a
`per_layer_config` key zerofata's canonical one lacks -- and the standing fix was
to force `allow_global_per_layer_attribute_access=True`. Both halves were wrong.

`pip install llmcompressor==0.13.0` downgrades transformers 5.16.1 -> 5.14.1. The
config was serialized by 5.16.1, which materializes `per_layer_config` from
`global_head_dim` + `layer_types`; 5.14.1 carries the heterogeneity guard but not
the gemma4 resolver. Under the image's own transformers the same config loads
fine. `:latest` was also re-pulled during attempt 4 and no earlier run, so the
toolchain moved mid-diagnosis. Two things separated "malformed upload" from
"moved toolchain": reproducing the real failing call (a bare AutoConfig load does
not reproduce it; the trigger is reached through AutoTokenizer) and keeping
zerofata's canonical tree, quantized cleanly on 2026-08-21, as a positive control.

The fix drops `per_layer_config` rather than forcing global access. It is exactly
redundant -- keys are precisely the ten full_attention layer indices, sole value
(512, 4), verbatim the global fields -- and forcing instead would make
`config.head_dim` answer 256 to the callers building the 512-wide layers.
patch_perlayer.py re-proves that redundancy at apply time and refuses if it ever
stops holding.

Verified on the tensor table rather than the exit code: the output is identical
family-for-family and count-for-count to the August canonical quant, with 356
BF16 vision-tower tensors preserved and input_activations=None. A GPU-free load
leaves 0 tensors on meta and generates coherent prose. The section 4.4 serve test
has NOT run -- GPU1 has 19.9 GB free against 19.5 GB of weights, so it needs a
live seat displaced.

Also fixes the A4B output, which had a truncation cap baked into its tokenizer
(max_length 8192) from being quantized with the calibration corpus.

Playbook gains section 3.17 for the pinned-transformers class and sharpens 3.16
to say drop the dataset outright for any A16 scheme.
