Proposed changes

  • Expand VRankEpoch alignment Note: append the consequence of violating the rule — the first post-fork epoch cannot accumulate scores over a full VRankEpoch window, and any query into the pre-fork portion has no VRank data to return.

Further comments

The existing Note stated the rule but not the reason, making the constraint look arbitrary. This PR adds the consequence so the rule has a visible rationale.

Expand the existing Note so the hardfork-epoch alignment rule also states
what goes wrong if violated: the first post-fork epoch cannot accumulate
scores over a full VRankEpoch window, and any query into the pre-fork
portion of that epoch has no VRank data to return.

Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
