paper: a four-column table declared three - #3315

Conversation
`build-paper.yml` has been red on master since 2026-04-14 and has never been
green. `tri red why` names the current cause as "Build PDF from LaTeX"; the runs
before it failed with no step reported at all, so the cause had already changed
once and reading only the oldest would have sent me somewhere else.
`docs/WHITEPAPER/latex/main.tex:278` declares
\begin{tabular}{lll}
while the header and every body row carry FOUR columns -- Property, IEEE 754,
Posit, GoldenFloat. Counted per row: 4, 4, 4, 4, 4.
One character.
Found by fanning `tri red why` across every workflow red on the default branch:
10 diagnosed, 5 FIX, 4 LEAVE, 1 RESTRICT_TRIGGER, and zero DELETE or DISABLE --
none of them should be removed, which was the question the sweep set out to ask.

The two runs before those failed with no step reported at all — a start-up
failure — so the cause had already changed once, and reading only the oldest
would have sent me somewhere else entirely.
The fix

tri red whyacross every workflow red on the default branch — 10 ofthem:
That last row is the answer to the question the sweep set out to ask: nine of
these have never once been green, and not one of them should be removed. The
adversarial stage had nothing to check, because no agent proposed removing a
check.
This PR is the cheapest of the five FIXes. The other four are recorded for
follow-up.
