david 20ccc16a77 books 10-11: Fable reassembly from zero-warning regenerated tracks
Regenerate every LLA tape lesson from original markdown+transcripts with the
post-review pipeline, select the cleanest candidate per lesson, deterministically
refine/split ranges, and slice fresh clips. All 30 per-track drafts validated at
0 errors / 0 warnings before assembly.

Reassemble weekly masters with Claude Fable (not Gemini), apply gated final
structure repair, and restore any drifted clip-bearing lines from source tracks.
All eight changed masters validate at 0/0, pass stage-master clip identity, and
use 100% of their source cassette clips. Includes the systemic fixes behind
Yana's reports: no Number/Repeat cue leaks, no doubled pronunciation models,
clean split boundaries, audible cloze setup context, apparatus-free feedback,
and properly distributed vocab teaching beats.
