History

Joe DiPrima 5d946240df Add Section 3.5: why the forward branch wins (directional bias) Three mechanisms explain sword spark straightness: axial field concentration at the leader tip, directional thermal pre-conditioning of gas ahead, and cold-air confinement restricting lateral breakout. Connects to the "too long ramp" regime where forward bias disappears and branching returns. Prompted by external reviewer question.
