Cluster-1 aliased the tech fills to DIFFERENT-valued tokens (semantic.positive,
accent.gold, accent.science), which silently shifted the tech-tree colours.
That conflated two separate decisions: "tier the tokens" (intended) and "unify
to the canonical palette" (not authorised). Aliasing must be value-preserving.
- Add primitives palette.{green,greenBright,gold,goldBright,blue} holding the
EXACT original tech-state hexes (kept distinct from the brighter semantic.*/
accent.* values on purpose).
- Re-point tech.{researchedBg,researchedBorder,availableBg,availableBorder,
currentBg} aliases at those primitives. locked*/selected already matched.
Result: tech.* is fully layered (component → primitive, zero component-level
hex) AND pixel-identical to the pre-cluster-1 appearance. Verified on plum:
baked meta blob resolves every tech.* to its original hex; render matches the
original muted colours. Whether researched-green SHOULD equal semantic.positive
is now an explicit future choice, not a silent one.
