"""
Representation-layer probe: what does MiniCPM5-2B's tokenizer actually see?

This is the mechanistic half of the study. The behavioural half asks whether
the model *reveals* that a question has several legitimate answers. This half
asks whether the tokenizer could even carry the distinctions those answers
depend on.

Everything here is computed from the tokenizer and the vocabulary, so the
numbers are exact and independent of quantisation or of prompting.

Method note. MiniCPM5-2B uses a GPT-2-style byte-level BPE. Tokens that are
genuine text units ("prayer") live in the vocabulary directly; anything else is
stored as *bytes* of UTF-8, each mapped into a printable stand-in character.
Arabic therefore has to be reassembled from raw byte tokens. To measure that
honestly we decode the byte alphabet back to bytes and then to text, rather
than inspecting the stand-in characters.

Measurements
------------
fertility_by_script        tokens per character and per word, by script
byte_level_profile         what share of the vocabulary and of each script is
                            byte-level fallback rather than a text unit
vocab_script_profile       how many consecutive Arabic *characters* any single
                            token covers
term_morphology            how a set of Arabic religious terms actually
                            tokenises: characters per token, fused or detached
                            short vowels
diacritic_cost             what a vocalised spelling costs over the unvocalised
                            one, and how the vowel is encoded
diacritic_discrimination   whether two spellings differing only in a short
                            vowel survive as different token sequences
