`arborist.qa.evidence._content_tokens` dropped every token under 4
chars, so a short all-caps acronym (CPU, GPU, DNA, FBI, USB…) never
registered as a content token — which defeated Rule 8
(_claim_title_overlap / TITLE_MISMATCH), the subject-tokens-absent
check (Rule 9), the bare-name-claim guard, and spotlight-excerpt token
selection whenever a question/claim's topic IS an acronym. The field
case: `what is a CPU?` cited to the "CPU design" article tripped
TITLE_MISMATCH even though claim and title both contain "CPU".
Fix: keep a token if it's an all-caps 2-3-char alpha run in the source
text; everything else unchanged. The change only ever ADDS tokens, so
TITLE_MISMATCH / SUBJECT_TOKENS_ABSENT / BARE_NAME_CLAIM can only stop
firing, never start — monotone toward fewer spurious demotes; no
STRICT→non-STRICT transition is possible from it.
Versioned: `content_token_rules: "v2-acronym-aware"` added to
runner.DEFAULT_POLICY + query.DEFAULT_QUERY_POLICY +
keys._VERIFIER_POLICY_FIELDS → folds into verifier_policy_hash, prior
cache records orphan on lookup (by design; same discipline as
base_version / hyphen_fold_v1). Does NOT touch the retrieval
abbreviation→expansion gap (CPU→Central processing unit — #000050 vec
hybrid / concepts/ synonym edges; the root cause of the satellite
retrieval). 8 new tests; full suite green (2502); bench-qa-smoke clean.
Next ID 000053 -> 000054.
