Collapse outcome test drops parentheses around the bit extraction · case 04

Projecting qubit 1 onto outcome 1 reports "impossible" even when that qubit is certainly excited.

Case contract

Input [n, amps, q, outcome]; measure qubit q (0 = LSB) of the possibly unnormalized state. Return {"probability": p, "state": post} with p normalized by the total squared norm and the post-measurement state renormalized to unit norm with the other branch zeroed; values rounded to 6 decimals. Return "impossible" when p < 1e-12.

Why this case matters

Mid-circuit measurement and collapse drive dynamic circuits; wrong renormalization breaks every later probability.
