The best-fit filter rejected pairs over a 5:1 aspect (or the plate's)
unless 75% utilized. A long part such as U251-DET3 (27.4 x 3.5, aspect
7.7) is past that alone, so its tightest interlocked pairs (5.1:1) were
all dropped even though they are less elongated than the part itself.
On the 60 x 120 sheet that cost 12 parts: 66 placed instead of 78.
The limit now widens to the part's own bounding-box aspect, so
side-by-side pairs survive while end-to-end pairs of compact parts are
still rejected.
The learned-angle characterization nests re-captured: their 46 x 3 bar
now nests as an interlocked pair, which left the Fill nest identical to
a full sweep, so the notched quantity drops from 6 to 4 to keep the
fixture sensitive to learned angles.

Cutting-planning, diagnostics and fill tests drew the same circles,
squares, clockwise rectangles, closed polygons, rounded rectangles and
right-midpoint rectangle contours in private helpers. They now use
TestHelpers; files whose helper had its own default size keep a
one-line wrapper for it.

The repo mixed variants such as center/centre and color/colour, so a
name could be spelled either way and searches missed half the hits.
Standardize on the US spelling, matching .NET's own APIs (Color, Center).
Wire values owned by other systems keep their spelling: the material
ledger's "Cancelled" hold status and GitHub's "cancelled" job status.
No behavior change beyond the spelling of a few status messages.

NestLayoutCheck rejected Fill layouts whose interlocked arcs sat exactly
at the part spacing: its SpacingOutline circumscribes arcs by up to 0.001
each, more than the 0.0005 slack, so facing arcs overlapped. The runner's
placement validator measured inscribed 0.001 polygons instead and so
accepted gaps up to ~0.002 under the slack.
Both now find candidates with SpacingOutline and confirm them on
NativeContours, the native contours flattened at a twentieth of the slack
(moved out of PartSpacingReview, which keeps using them). The runner calls
NestLayoutCheck.KeepsSpacing, the same outline, tie rule and
confirmation, so the two validators accept exactly the same pairs.
Clears stays unconfirmed and stricter for engine certification. No
tolerance changed.
FixedStrategyEngine_IrregularJob pins now assert LayoutAssert.Valid with
unchanged digests; the NativeU 70-part grid's 28 reports were the same
cause and its test now requires none.

BestFitFinder gathered each rotation strategy's candidates, and PairEvaluator
gathered evaluated results, in ConcurrentBags, so their order depended on which
worker finished first. The stable area sort then broke equal-area ties in that
arbitrary order, and fills, which try candidates in order and keep the first of
equal layouts, could nest the same parts differently between runs.
Both now fill index-addressed slots: candidates keep rotation-angle and
slide-offset order, results keep candidate order, and ties break the same way
every run. The candidates produced and their scores are unchanged.
The Strip whole-job pin in FillStackCharacterizationTests is re-pinned
(A66602F707290A36 -> FD03A4529D37E32C). That job ties between best-fit
pairs; the old pin recorded whichever tied pair the bag happened to return
first. The new layout places the same 26 parts, passes LayoutAssert.Valid
and gave the same digest in five separate test processes. The other 28
pins are unchanged.

Saved best-fit pairs are in the drawing's canonical frame, but the canonical
angle is recomputed on load and was not saved with the set. When that
computation changes (RotatingCalipers checking every hull edge, marks no
longer counted as material), old pairs were replayed in a turned frame and
could overlap.
Each saved set now records canonicalAngle, and BestFitCacheStore.Import
skips sets whose angle no longer matches the recomputed one (1e-9 rad,
modulo a full turn). Sets from older files have no angle and are dropped;
their pairs are recomputed when next needed.

Interactive Fill ran the best-fit pair phase first. The first pair
computation for a drawing can take about a minute, and until it finished
the progress dialog showed no layout, Accept stayed disabled and the
status text did not change.
The fill now packs the part boxes (RectBestFit) before the pair phase and
reports that layout, so Accept is available at once. The layout is only a
fallback: strategies still run in their usual order, and a completed fill
picks the same winner as before. While the pairs are computed, the detail
line reads "Computing best-fit pairs (may take a minute)...". Accept or
Stop now stops the wait. The computation keeps running in the background
and is cached for the next fill.

Saved pairs are in the drawing's canonical frame, but loaded candidates
held the source drawing, so BuildCanonicalParts/BuildSourceParts rebuilt
a different pair for any drawing with a non-zero canonical angle (a 30
degree T-shape came back 16.57 x 10.39 instead of its saved 16.92 x 8).
That reached the Irregular engine's pair catalog and the best-fit viewer
after opening a saved nest. Import now binds every candidate to one
canonical copy, as computed candidates are; fills already passed the
canonical drawing explicitly.

Reading a nest used to fill the engine's static BestFitCache as a side
effect, which is the only reason OpenNest.IO referenced OpenNest.Engine.
Core now defines SavedPairSet/SavedPairResult and IBestFitStore; the
mapping to BestFitResult moved verbatim into Engine's BestFitCacheStore.
NestReader/NestWriter take the store as an optional BestFitStore property
and skip bestfits/ entries without one.
Every production reader and writer opts into BestFitCacheStore.Shared, so
behaviour is unchanged; the golden round-trip test still matches byte for
byte.

The multi-phase lattice fill (linear, pairs, rectangle best-fit, remainder) is
no longer meant to be the engine used by default, so it gets a name for what
it does. The registry lists it as Fill and maps the old name Default to it;
PlateFillService, PlateNesterFactory and NestJobOptions use Fill, and every
fill-strategy caller still accepts Default. Console --autonest now validates
engine names through NestingEngineRegistry.ResolveName so renamed names work.
Layouts are unchanged: Default and Fill resolve to the same fillers and the
golden layouts pass under the new name.
Thin-framed, hollow, or concave parts (e.g. SULLYS-035's frame) have
inherently low part-to-bbox utilization yet nest tightly, so the 30%
MinUtilization floor wrongly dropped every candidate for them. Pair
quality is judged by the rotated pair bounding-box area the results
are already sorted on; utilization now only ever serves as the
high-aspect exception (UtilizationOverride), never as a rejection.
Adds a hollow-frame helper plus regression tests that kept pairs
exist with low utilization and results stay sorted by pair area.
Every DefaultPlateFiller.Fill makes a fresh canonical copy of the drawing,
and BestFitCache/FillResultCache keyed by drawing reference, so fills never
shared results and the static caches grew without bound.
CanonicalFrame now records which drawing each canonical copy came from.
Both caches key weakly on that source drawing, so every canonical copy
shares one entry and released drawings can be collected. An entry is
dropped when the drawing's Program instance or canonical angle changes.
Best-fit candidates are computed once per (drawing, spacing) through
BestFitFinder.FindCandidates and filtered per plate size with the same
filter FindBestFits uses. FillResultCache keeps canonical and
non-canonical callers apart.
Adds Debug-only PerfCounters for best-fit runs, offset perimeter builds
and Part.Intersects calls.

Repo-wide sweep with the pinned CSharpier 1.3.0 tool. Whitespace and
line-wrapping only; OpenNest.Engine.Tests (109) and OpenNest.IO.Tests
pass after reformat, full solution builds 0 errors.
Added .csharpierignore so csproj/config XML keeps its existing layout
(CSharpier's XML wrapping churns attributes with zero benefit).
Formatting is now enforceable: dotnet csharpier check . passes.
Consolidated two stateless classes into one unified API: Dxf.Import(),
Dxf.GetGeometry(), Dxf.ExportPlate(), Dxf.ExportProgram(). Export
state moved into a private ExportContext. Removed bool+out pattern
from GetGeometry in favor of returning empty list on failure.

BuildOffsets had Width and Length swapped after the Box axis correction
in c5943e2. Horizontal pushes used Length (X) for perpendicular sweep
and Width (Y) for push start — backwards. This caused part2 to start
inside part1's footprint, producing overlapping best-fit pairs.
Added regression test that verifies no kept best-fit pairs overlap.

Move 43 root-level test files into feature-specific subdirectories
mirroring the main codebase structure: Geometry, Fill, BestFit, CutOffs,
CuttingStrategy, Engine, IO. Update namespaces to match folder paths.
