12        # Streaming-style grammar search with memoized recursive DP over intervals,
13        # but without O(n^2) tables. We use:
14        # - literal blocks
15        # - single-char runs
16        # - repeated-pattern factors
17        # - previous-substring references via on-demand search

19        # Cost model is in character-units to match scoring better:
20        # literal block s -> len(s)
21        # concat(a,b) -> cost(a)+cost(b)
