ROOT CAUSE

Bottom-up scanlines are displayed without vertical orientation conversion.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Use the stage contract: Convert a bottom-up row list into top-down orientation by reversing row order while preserving horizontal pixel order.

Unsuccessful approach: Reversing each row mirrors horizontally instead of flipping row order.

Case contract

Convert a bottom-up row list into top-down orientation by reversing row order while preserving horizontal pixel order.

Why this case matters

A deterministic software graphics stage with explicit channel and coordinate conventions; no hardware, device profile or API behavior is inferred.

Verification & scope

This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
