## Handoffs and cross-checks

Elastic solver is the e=1 special case of the restitution solver — identical answers required; momentum conserved in every collision.

## PointGuard stance

Conservation checks are non-negotiable: total p before = after always; KE conserved iff e=1; energy lost = ½µ(1−e²)Δv².
