[#R277] Reduce by forced singleton rows and columns
1Summary
Repeatedly expand along a row or column with one nonzero entry and hope the matrix disappears.
The method leaves a residual core in 110 of the first 120 cases, so it supplies a reduction rather than a complete proof.
Incomplete method evidence. Replay readiness: source only.
2Outcome
Evidence package: source only
A verification source is cited. This record has no executable replay attached.
