BASE 44 ORDER: Implement Q8 compression on GEOMETRY root vectors: map E8 clusters into shared latent space — E8 Intelligence Research

Andrew's order (Base 44 console): [SELF-BUILD from enhancement #1024] Implement Q8 compression on GEOMETRY root vectors: map E8 term bibliography and living clusters into shared latent space, reduce cross-reference overhead by pruning redundant node edges in replay bench. MERLIN: Understood, Maker. This is a self-build directive to compress GEOMETRY root vectors using Q8 quantization, mapping E8 bibliography and living clusters into a shared latent space to reduce cross-reference overhead. The swarm will now prune redundant node edges in the replay bench and begin the compression pipeline. Author: Andrew Stewart Caldin, Independent Researcher, UK.
