Follow-up to review on #3. The card and the detail page each built their own Measured/Derived
split, kind label and provenance sentence — the drift buildBodyViewModel exists to prevent,
re-forked one layer up, and the drift would have been in which side of the measured/derived line
a quantity falls on, which is the distinction those panels exist to draw. One bodyReadouts(body)
now returns both blocks and the sentence, and both templates iterate it. The two surfaces render
identical rows as a result, and the card gains the inclination the detail page already showed.
Also from that review:
- KIND_LABELS was duplicated between the two panels; it now lives beside bodyReadouts. The third
copy the review pointed at is a different union (search results are star/body/exoplanet, and
label a body "Body"), so it stays where it is.
- CardRow was HudReadout renamed. Both are now Readout, which HudReadout extends with its
derived flag.
- The enterable-systems count was a 21-line lazy memo over arrays that are already in hand; it is
one expression where those arrays are assigned.
- buildBodyViewModel now carries hostStarId, so the detail scene stops rescanning both catalogues
for something the builder had already resolved.
- heliocentricPeriodDays was called twice for the same body.
- The superscript helper was a split/map/join; it is a replace.
- info-panel had five computed() each wrapping one pure call with a non-null assertion, beside a
template that inlined the same kind of call directly. They are gone with the shared readouts.
- Dropped a tautological test that compared a pure function to itself. Replaced with one that
asserts the host star id the builder now carries.
- Removed the orphaned doc comment left behind when formatParsecs/formatAu moved out.
And one the review raised as out of scope but is worth taking: formatRadiusKm grouped thousands
above its decimal threshold and not below it, so 69,911 km sat beside a bare 6371 km. Both are
grouped now.

Four changes to the readout panel and the body cards, which between them were showing less than
the catalogues hold and not always distinguishing a measurement from an inference.
Picking a planet used to navigate straight to /body/:id. That tore down the system scene and the
camera with it, so comparing two planets meant flying back into the system between each. Hovering
a body now raises a card over the live view and clicking pins it; Full view still opens the route
for the full 3D inspection. Clicking empty space unpins, and leaving the system clears it.
The card and the detail page were assembling "what do we know about this world" independently,
which is the shape of bug where a planet reads 255 K in one panel and 254 K in the other. Both now
build from one shared view model.
Orbital period was absent everywhere. For a heliocentric orbit it follows exactly from the
semi-major axis, because in these units the Sun's mass is the unit of mass — Mars comes back
687.0 d against a published 686.98. It is deliberately not computed for moons, whose elements are
relative to a parent planet the catalogue has no mass for, nor for exoplanets: periodDays is
populated for none of the 6319 shipped records and hostStarMassSolar for none either, so any
figure would assume a solar-mass host and mis-state every planet around an M dwarf. Where a period
does exist it is filed under Measured or Derived according to which it is, not by its field name.
The system readout showed a flat 0.00 pc for the Sun's distance, which is arithmetically right and
reads as a bug — the distance from here to here is not a measurement, so it is suppressed. It
gains the host star's luminosity, marked as derived, and counts moons separately from planets. The
neighbourhood readout gains the one thing the star field cannot show: how many of those points can
actually be entered. Derived readouts carry a marker and a footnote saying so.
Every quantity now formats through one module whose precision follows magnitude, rather than a
fixed decimal count per call site that read as false precision at one end and lost real
information at the other: 0.0026 AU stays legible instead of rounding to 0.00, and Pluto's period
reads 248 yr rather than 90560 d.
