What changed?

This lab is a separate self-gravitating execution path. Every resident body contributes mass to a deterministic quadtree. Distant cells may be replaced by their centre of mass when s / d < θ; nearby cells are opened. A kick–drift–kick leapfrog step rebuilds the tree after the drift.

The GALAXY rotation-law instrument remains available separately. Its huge logical populations are sampled independent test particles; they are not silently reinterpreted as mutually interacting bodies. This lab keeps the resident population explicit because self-gravity creates cross-particle coupling.
