For developers
BNL Scalar Alias Capture
An undated four-alias evaluator rendering preserved as a concise provenance page plus a hashed ANSI data artifact instead of 9,500 lines of authored prose.
Status: Archived raw-output evidence
This record describes an undated diagnostic capture present at evidence revision
4fdbf430b29edd24b9e1292c07ab24a151427dc7. It is not a benchmark and does not establish current runtime behavior. The four complete expression payloads occupy a 1.9 MB non-prose data artifact, so the developer page remains navigable.

The migration removed only the Markdown wrapper and added machine-readable capture headers; the expression payloads retain their original ANSI SGR color sequences. View the artifact with a terminal that understands ANSI escapes or strip them in a disposable copy. Do not treat the printed byte counts as stable across Symbolica versions or formatting changes.
Captured aliases
| Alias | Terms | Reported bytes |
|---|---|---|
scalar(0) | 1 | 5272 |
scalar(2) | 1 | 59391 |

scalar(8) | 1 | 953984 |
The size distribution explains why aliasing materially changes the evaluator-network input: the largest captured scalar dominates the raw printed payload. This record preserves the observation without embedding thousands of terminal-output lines in authored documentation.
