The LLM index still opened with vllm-radiance as frank-medium's runtime and
drew the replica pair in its topology diagram; the cooperation page's thesis
(collectives are impossible, so the answer is hardware) now has to name the
path the fleet actually took: llama.cpp's layer split, which launches no RCCL
kernel on either card. That reframes the M.2 riser as a means to TENSOR
parallelism rather than a means to using both cards at all.
