Stokes linear basis: Stokes intensity normalization imports a half-sum convention from another adapter · case 02

The adapter reports an incorrect intensity while other fields remain valid.

Case contract

Two real linear-feed correlations XX,YY and real/imaginary XY define stipulated Stokes I=XX+YY,Q=XX-YY,U=2re,V=-2im. Reversing feed labels negates Q and V, leaves I and U unchanged. Output rotated fields model only that feed swap. Output fields are defined by: intensity = d['xx']+d['yy']; linear_q = d['xx']-d['yy']; linear_u = 2*d['re']; circular_v = -2*d['im']; swapped_q = d['yy']-d['xx']; swapped_v = 2*d['im']

Why this case matters

Catalog, detector, sky-coordinate, and spectroscopy adapters must preserve the association between numeric coordinates and their declared reference conventions.
