**What it does not test.** This does not establish that photonic hardware is yet accessible to developers or that it displaces GPU based compute at scale.

**How this item counts.** No movement: no answer to who owns, who operates, whose law governs or who made the parts changes. Weight 0\. SDK release doesn't change own/operate/law/parts; explicitly not yet accessible at scale. [European Sovereignty Index](https://sovereigntymonitor.eu/sovereignty-index/)
