The reason given was wrong. A dot path did reach an empty-named field:
Fake("a.") returned it, Fake("a.b.") returned a nested one, and {..a.} bound
it. What was true is narrower — List never offered it, because an empty name
is no path segment — so the engine accepted spellings it would not advertise.
The message, the test comment and the README say that instead.
Two things the rejection finished off:
A {} token still reported "no field \"\"", pointing at a fix the loader now
rejects — two errors for one rule. It is told the name can never exist, like
an option token already is.
addressable is dead: both halves of "not empty and no dot" are now rejected
where a name is authored. Mutating it to panic leaves the suite green here
and panics on main, so it was live and is not. Keeping it would preserve the
silent-hiding this change removes — List quietly omitting a name rather than
New refusing it.

Sharing renders' seen set across heads left the suite green while silently
under-rejecting: the first head's walk marks the only route to the second
head's draw. This PR widens heads from the bound levels to every held name,
so two heads in one template is now the ordinary case; a rejected case whose
violation sits on the later head pins the scoping.
An operand rendering one field twice covers the revisit guard, taking
coverage to 97.8% against main's 97.4%.
The README said the two spellings are rejected alike without saying what the
hold follows, which is not true where the operand reaches its own field
through a reference. It now names the plain {field} tokens the walk follows.

The fence pinned only the operand node, so a reference reaching into it drew
that value again: {net.v} was a load error while {..cat.net.v} loaded and
disagreed in 20 of 40 renders. The hold now covers what rendering the operand
settles inside itself, so both spellings of that shape are rejected.
The walk stops at a {..path} edge, where the operand's own value ends and a
shared source begins. cover stops there too, through named, so both halves of
the fence end at the same boundary — and two names drawing from one referenced
category stay two draws.

float's prep still swallowed ParseFloat's error three lines from the atoi that
had just been changed to report one — two spellings of "parse an arg the check
already validated". atof reports it the same way.
The README paragraph said a reference reaching through an operand is caught,
which the narrowed fence no longer does and should not: it says what the hold
pins instead. Restored the why the trimmed comment in expand had carried.

The one-spelling section described a calc operand only as a route that
renders a level, so a reader could not predict that {..cat.net} beside
{calc(net * 2, 2)} is now a load error with no path token in sight. It says
so, and says what an operand's draw covers and what it leaves free.
Dropped the paragraph in checkBoundLevelsHeld that restated its own first
line and the loop below it, and the escape-analysis note in expand.

The Computation section carried the caveat this branch removes — that a field
shown and used in a calc is drawn twice — so it now describes the hold
instead. The name rules name all four reserved characters rather than the
dot alone, in both the Data and Data format sections, and the alternation
entry says a repeated arm is a load error and points at weight.
