Add v2_a11 describability axis using NBJ 5-Q test

filter rejected AXIS reversible: simple 4h proposed 10 Jun 2026
What is the proposed change?
Insert v2_a11 (0-3 scale) after a10 in filter_score.js axis array. Automated scorer counts how many of the 5 NBJ questions (Who specifically? What pain? When triggered? Where buyer reachable? How priced?) the candidate answers with named entities vs hedges/abstractions. Mapping: 5/5 named=3; 3-4=2; 1-2=1; 0=0. Adds 0-3 to composite without reweighting existing axes.

Expected effect
On rerun of 43 graduated candidates, the 4 Commander-overridden candidates (3 KILL + 1 DEFER) score ≤1 on a11 while approved candidates score ≥2, producing 2-3 point composite spread that correlates with override decisions.
Falsifier — what would prove this wrong?
If the 4 overridden candidates' mean a11 is within 0.5 of approved-candidate mean across the 43-item rerun, axis fails to discriminate; remove the single function call and axis definition.
