Permutation-Symmetric Quadratic Module

Replace a wide collection of interchangeable near-zero branches with a module whose output is explicitly a quadratic form in the branch-weight Gram matrix. The module preserves the paper's leading-order behavior while making the relevant collective variable explicit and allowing low-rank parameterizations.

Order-Parameter Mode Activation Schedule

Use the paper's order-parameter dynamics to initialize spectral feature modes with deliberately separated activation times. This creates a controlled progressive-learning curriculum in which dominant modes become available first and weaker modes activate later, potentially reducing early gradient interference.
