Warpax toolkit demonstrates that observer-robust optimization finds more extensive and severe energy-condition violations in warp drive metrics than single-frame Eulerian analysis.
Source-consistent warp shells fail energy conditions at the source-vacuum boundary in all examined constructions and parameter scans.
