Codec and measurement boundaries
Browser decoding differs across Safari, Chrome, Firefox, iOS, and Android. Rendered edits are exported as WAV unless a tool explicitly states another supported container. Loudness analysis is a practical BS.1770-style estimate rather than a certified meter, and sample clipping checks do not replace true-peak oversampling.
Peak target must be attainable
Peak normalization now rejects a completely silent source instead of implying that silence reached the requested dBFS ceiling. It remains peak normalization, not LUFS normalization.
