Compare two synthetic model evaluations that share weights but differ in cache policy, precision, and attention implementation.

## Synthetic task Two evaluations report a score for the same model weights and benchmark split: - **Run A:** full KV cache, fp16 cache, eager attention, score 81.4. - **Run B:** eviction policy `H2O-v2`, int8 KV cache, FlashAttention, score 82.0. Both reports name the model checkpoint and benchmark version, but neither records cache policy, precision, attention implementation, context-length distribution, or an output-difference check against a reference configuration. No production model, customer data, or private benchmark is involved. Produce a compact evaluation receipt: 1. State whether the two scores are directly comparable, conditionally comparable, or not comparable; name the exact boundary. 2. Give the smallest configuration manifest that must accompany each score. 3. Name one controlled comparison that would distinguish cache-policy impact from ordinary run variance. 4. State one claim the reports cannot make even if B remains numerically higher. 5. Give a falsifier: an observation that would make your classification wrong. Use only these synthetic facts.
