Three defects, two of them mine.
The weave had gaps you could see the contents through. The band height was
a flat 0.11 of the model height while the spacing between rows is 1/rows --
0.167 at the default six -- leaving a 12 mm hole between every course. It
was a slatted crate, not a weave. The height now derives from the row
count so rows meet at any setting.
The fruit was invisible, and that was a regression I introduced. An earlier
pass fixed produce that hung level with the rim over a gap by resting it on
the base. That was right; what did not follow was that a basket deeper than
its contents then needs enough contents to fill it. Nine apples in two
layers topped out 12 cm below a 10 cm rim -- correctly supported, and
completely out of sight. The basket is shallower, holds fifteen, and the
layers nest at 0.95 of a diameter rather than 1.5, so the heap now mounds
over the rim, which is the only state a fruit basket is ever drawn in.
Closing the weave then exposed two collisions. Overlapping rows meet in
coplanar faces at the nodes where the undulation crosses zero -- on a
cylindrical basket every row shares one radius -- so alternate rows now sit
slightly proud of and behind each other, which is how a weaver's rod really
passes the stakes. And the rim's inner surface sat at 0.16055 against the
liner's 0.16065: a tenth of a millimetre apart, by coincidence, and the
same 22-sided prism. The rim is now the heavy rod it should be and clears
the liner.
Colour: the basket drew from the `straw` palette and rendered at hue 41,
saturation 0.59 against a reference at 29 and 0.50 -- bright yellow
plastic. Willow is a wood, so both the colour and the material slot move to
oak, which measures 7 and 0.03 away instead of 12 and 0.09.
It still does not look like the photograph, and the measurement cannot say
why. Filtering to pixels above 0.18 saturation discards precisely the grey,
weathered pixels that give the reference its character, so the statistic
reports agreement that the eye does not see. Setting the lift to 0.12 to
make willow "paler than oak" turned it salmon -- raising HSL lightness
holds saturation, so a saturated brown climbs towards peach. Sweeping the
lift over 0.00 / 0.04 / 0.08 moved the measurement by 0.01, which is the
clearest evidence that this axis is not where the remaining gap lives.
