Convergence Fold Diamond

Gallery / Serpentine Layout

Two distinct lines converging into a sink folded below its branches: a `fold_threshold` stacks both branches in one column and drops the shared sink onto a lower row, fed through a TOP entry. The two feeders, and the run through the merge, ride parallel approach channels rather than collapsing onto one vertical channel.
