This study asks how flux structure distributes across velocity scales, and which scales carry the temperature information. Using published Lyman-alpha forest measurements as stated inputs, and a bounce frame in which the early universe turned around at a density of 9.72 x 10^54 grams per cubic centimetre, the relevant quantities are computed directly and compared with the precision of the data. The headline outcome is as follows: band_variance_20kms = 0.0373; bounce_band_shift = 6.59906074074074e-85; result = small-scale band power is temperature-sensitive; bounce shift negligible (negative). Band variance rises from the smallest scale toward intermediate scales in the toy spectrum, with the twenty kilometre per second band carrying roughly a third of the total variance. All values are computed from the stated assumptions, not measured, and the computation is supplied so that every number can be reproduced.
