The source-to-stage mapping moves off :main's :face group and onto each face's
own :place, above its head. `face-placement` computes exactly what it computed
before, over every subject together, so two faces filmed side by side keep
their filmed relation — it is written into each face instead of onto a group
above them all. Same transform, same subtree, one level lower, and the
composite is identical to the pixel: a digest over every op :main emits across
the whole take is unchanged either way.
THE OWNER IS THE POINT. A face carrying its own mapping is the right size
wherever it is put — dropped into another symbol, or opened in its own tab to
be drawn over — and the take that holds it needs to know nothing. On a group
above the instances the scale belonged to the take, so a face taken out of it
had no size at all and drew at a fraction of a pixel.
The pool's thumbnails drop the workaround that knew about this: a symbol is
rendered rooted at itself again, because a face now carries the placement that
makes that honest, so the pool needs to know nothing about where a symbol
happens to be used. `domain/node` and `arthur.export` leave its requires with it.
The tests here were reading the placement off :main. The photo registration
test changes shape rather than location: its premise was that face-1's head is
its own root, so a photo sitting where it was filmed was image pixels over
image height and nothing else. The head still cancels — that is what the test
is about — but it now cancels against the face's own placement, which is why
the photo comes with the face into its own tab instead of sitting at a
fraction of a pixel beside it.
