   (and the template's play block has it): on a core with contract K1 the GRIPS move, turn
   and scale the world DURING the game — the trigger owns the dots.

+- **The stick pushes and pulls the board, as Edit does to a held object (G2).** Holding the
+  globe (trigger on it), that hand's stick now maps like an Edit grab: UP pushes the globe
+  away, DOWN pulls it closer, LEFT / RIGHT scales it (it was up/down = scale). Pointing the
+  right laser at the board or the globe, the right stick's up/down pushes it away / pulls it
+  closer along the laser (left/right still turns the globe). Local, like the hold; a mode
+  switch puts the board back where it was authored. The numbers are Edit's reel (`reel.js`,
+  core's grabStickAdjust: 3 % of the distance per frame at full stick). On a 1.19 core
+  `api.claimInput('sticks')` pauses BOTH sticks while they act on the board (no snap turn, no
+  walking); on 1.18 the hold claims the left stick only and the right stick's left/right stays
+  the player's snap turn (so only the left hand scales there). Core 1.19 also reels the WORLD:
+  a right grip that pans the world + the stick up/down pushes it away / pulls it closer.
+- **The level picker shows in the headset (G3).** On a 1.18 core the picker was invisible over
+  core's VR panel when you stood with the head level: core re-stamps every registered VR
+  panel to its own draw order each frame, so the tie with core's panel was broken by depth,
+  and the panel's backdrop won (looking down past ~3 degrees it showed — why the round-31 eye
+  shots, aimed down at the panel, had it). three sorts by each geometry's bounding-sphere
+  centre, so the picker's geometry now carries a sphere centred 15 cm toward the eyes
+  (`vrmenu.js` SORT_LEAD): it draws last at any head pitch on any core. The Board choice is also registered `onLevels`: a 1.19 core draws it as tabs (Globe /
+  2D board) above the pause menu's Levels grid, desktop and VR, and that grid shows all 30
+  levels in VR (it stopped at 20).
+- Flights: `untangle-vr2` L.5b/c (the picker's pixel from a LEVEL head and looking down), R
+  (push / pull on the board and the globe, the claim), S (left X → the pause menu → Levels →
+  the Board tabs → a level, through core's panel press path); `untangle-vr` G.5-G.6 (the
+  held globe reels on Y, scales on X).
